Microsoft Malicious Software Removal Tool

To Old To Work, Too Young To Retire asks:
Should I install the MS Malicious Software Removal Tool? I ask because some people consider most stuff by MS to BE malicious software!
Well, assuming that you don't want to download loadlin, the Microsoft Malicious Software Removal Tool really is the shizzle Flippity Floppity Floop.

Microsoft is doing something right here. As you can imagine, they see lots of malware, and they've packaged up the tool to delete it from your system.

And it's free. So well done, Microsoft.

Download it here, or run it online in your browser (Internet Explorer, of course - but it's OK just this once).

    It saved our bacon on the wife's vista POS but the nag screens begging us to upgrade were really annoying.

    I had to remove Live OneCare from my mom's Vista machine because it kept interrupting every single process, program and email, and it just made doing *anything* a huge headache.
