Microsoft Malicious Software Removal Tool

Anyone used this yet? I wonder if it is any good.


Start, Run, mrt.

It's targeted at specific malware that can cause patches and Service Packs to fail, but otherwise, it doesn't seem good for much. Sadly, just like Windows Defender, it's mostly useless. I don't think there is a better malware solution than Spybot right now. I don't think any "for pay" software outperforms it, and in spite of all the professionals that I respect telling me how good Malwarebytes Anti-Malware is, I still think Spybot is the best general defense.

MSRT downloads and runs every month - if this fails to run, you want to know why!

I agree it's limited but if it doesn't run, it can speak volumes

I agree, spybot is still the best, but Malware bytes is easier for customers to use and provides a log they can find and email to me quickly and easily.
