• Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool vs Malwarebyte Anti-Malware

  Explain the difference/other services/conflicts between Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool and Malwarebyte Anti-Malware.

  I currently use Anti-Malware in conjunctgion with KIS 2012.

  Hi RW,.

  Not precisely.  I say that the Windows Firewall is perfectly adequate, and I don't know any others that provide better protection (but others may have more options of configuration or bells and whistles, some will offer essentially equivalent protection, and some are not as good as Windows Firewall).  Of course, some will say that there are some firewalls that are better than the Windows Firewall, but is no longer a subject of debate and discussion than anything I saw firmly and convincingly demonstrated.  And we know that the Windows Firewall works properly with Windows and other Microsoft products and has great support.  And I never heard of software conflicting with the Windows Firewall, I heard things regarding 3rd party brands - involving mainly browsers, e-mail programs and security as well as configurations of network programs (not just internet, but internal intranet, you can have in your home using cables (, wireless routers/modems, infrared devices, bluetooth, remote deskop (internal or external) devices if used parental controls, interfaces with the security at home and/or surveillance systems wireless devices such as printers or scanners or fax machines and other similar things).

  Remember, without a firewall your computer give to anyone trying to access the system through any network or remote connection via the ports.  There are several ports, most average users never need.  The firewall blocks essentially all ports except those that are specifically excluded.  That's where you come in.  Each has a default list of excluded ports.  You must go through this list and remove all exclusions that you know you don't need (and be sure you KNOW what you have blocked before deleting the exclusion).  Each exclusion represent a hole in your security that an attacker could have access.  The less the better.  When I came through the list, I probably cut just a little less than 50% of registrants - but I cut some I used but rarely I would have rather the firewall blocks and make the extra effort to unblock port temporarily the few times that I need to leave open at all times.  Although for Vista, this article will help you understand the basic concepts of http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Firewall-frequently-asked-questions.   Attention to the last on the list because it provides links to other articles where you can get better and more information that can help you to choose and decide.

  I'm not going to argue here, since you have already the product and more.  This isn't what I would have chosen, but it is probably one of the best on the market suites and much, much better than some other choice, you could have done.  According to me, that it will probably do the job.  Quite simply, I don't know how good it is the Firewall works because I've never used this before then.  It may in fact be just as good and offer more features, or may not provide the same level of protection or cause any problems or conflicts with other programs or with your network (depending on how you setup).  I do not know.  You bought the suite because you wanted more features than just anti-virus protection.

  I think you can guess what I personally would do, but I can't advise you on what to do here - it's your software, your computer and your decision to make.  Don't forget that you can always disable the firewall in KIS and activate Windows Firewall (or the reverse), once you choose.  This comment in my post was directed at all the recipients and I didn't change it to you specifically - I mean not that it appear as more accurately you invites to spend now that you have already bought another product.  I was trying to say to people in general, he was no need to spend money on a separate firewall when the Windows Firewall has been excellent and would do the job perfectly well.  However, Windows Defender does NOT provide adequate and afflicted an antivirus program protection must be added (that may or may not turn off defender during the installation) to be sure.

  In short, the decision is yours to make.

  I hope this helps clarify things.

  Good luck and best wishes!

• Endangered malicious software removal tool?

  I have downloaded and run the tool for removing malicious software on January 8 and she come clean but today I get a message that I have a malicious virus!  Why would it be?  Also today I can't locate the "Malicious Software Removal Tool" why would it?

  The malicious software removal tool (MRT) is not a substitute for an antivirus application.  When you download it, it runs once (the MRT is not active in the background or run whenever you start your computer) and then search existing infections that he recognizes and attempts to remove them.

  After you have run the MRT, you stay vulnerable to subsequent infection of malicious software, including all the MRT having withdrawn, unless you have a separate anti-virus application with a current subscription.

  A new version of the RMT, with malicious software update information is downloaded each month on "Patch Tuesday".  If you want to re-run the MRT at any time until it is downloaded again next month, locate your computer MRT.exe.  Normally, it is located in C:\Windows\system32.

• Path and a location for the file Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool for Vista 64 X

  I am trying to understand if the X 64 Malicious Software Removal Tool should be in both x 86 directory, system, system32 or SYSWOW64 in Vista Home Premium directory, SP2. It would seem logical that he would go in the second case, but I see it in the system32 directory. I want to just make sure I'm on the right pair and it is in the right directory.

  On 64-bit systems System32 is the 64-bit folder.

• Microsoft® Windows® Malicious Software Removal Tool (KB890830), has - it stopped and had to be replaced?

  I have a program that tells me that the foregoing must put up-to-date but also says, in 'the details' that it has been discontinued, 'end of life' is mentioned. I should remove it completely, and is a replacement, any help please?

  Hi, 1 thank you a lot for your responses to my query. You gave me a good lesson on the search for info according to your instructions.

  I will definitely read the links on registry cleaning etc.
  I came across another thread with the same query as mine and after reading all the reviews, I decided to do the same thing that the "asker" which was to educate Secunia PSI to ignore instructions from manual update for the original program expired. Secunia PSI shows now 100% on my programs updated and everything seems to work OK.
  I obviously confused and put in the wrong program for removal in my 1st question.

  Malicious Software Removal Tool (KB890830), it should have been, (how to remove KB833330 - Blaster, Nachi removal tool?).

  This thread is that I came across. You may find it interesting to read and will no doubt understand all my comments confused and ignorant!
  Once again thank you for your patience and comments, much appreciated!

• Offered separately and after other Windows malicious software removal tool updates this month?

  As the header says, I was surprised to see THAT MRT for July 2013 offered after that I had installed all updates of updated patch Tuesday and I wouldn't have noticed if I didn't re-run WU.   Of course those who probably have to download and install automatically WU would not notice this.  I prefer to make my own.

  I noticed the same thing in Windows 7 and 8.

  Is it a new way of doing things?

• Windows Defender and the malicious software removal tool not doing anything to protect against malware, why Windows Update keep harassing upgrade us on a regular basis?

  original title: WHY Windows Update keep up to date USELESS of Windows Defender and installation USELESS malware remover?

  I'm a computer technician who makes a TON of virus remove money from Windows computers.  Two-thirds of my tasks of repair involving the elimination of viruses from Windows and trying to fix the Internet Explorer, the worst browser known to humanity.

  I have a question about Windows Defender and the malicious software removal tool.  These are two programs entirely worthless, evidenced by the fact that computers with them installed still get infected of all viruses, Trojan and rootkit out there.  Clearly, if these two programs of malware Microsoft has done anything to protect your computer, it would have been without having to release still a THIRD tool antivirus, "security essentials" for Microsoft.   I'm not complaining — the way Microsoft Windows absorbs malware like a sponge, put a lot of money in my bank account. Please keep doing what you're doing... however...

  My question is, given that Windows Defender and the malicious software removal tool doing nothing to protect against malware, why Windows Update keep harassing upgrade us on a regular basis?

  Windows defender is not an antivirus program, it is designed to protect against spyware.

  If you don't like them, so do not use them.

• Malicious software removal tool update problems the last few months. Suspended for a very long time. Vista Home Premium 32 bit SP2

  Hello

  The last 3 months when the download and installation of my updates for Windows Vista, it gets stuck for hours on the malicious software removal tool. I have to cancel it. Restart the computer and reinstall. Then he moved very well and quickly according to historical updates. Last month, it was really difficult to cancell it well. He finally got through it. Here is a little history on my machine. I'm very very well with this computer. Each week, I do disk Cleanup, then defrag with diskeeper, virus scan with Microsoft Security Essentials. And every six months, I run a very large disk check and I said to correct errors and try to fix bad sectors. More than 3 years, I only had 2 minor bluescreens. I always make sure I have all my products Microsoft put updated. When I first got this computer I had a guy I.T. (a neighbor) out of the box and clean all the useless garbage out of it and it partitioned the hard drive. More than 3 years, he managed as a champion. Always very fast and all.

  I hope that I'm not the only person having problems with this. Just start with the month of June, then July, then August.

  P.S. I have 2 laptops running XP sp3, one is 9 years old and the other is 11 years old, he had 2000 top PRO, but I just put XP sp3 on it last month. They run too much like fields. I take good care of my computers with a little help from my friend IT. They have the same programs as this one and I do the same things to them, but they do not have this same problem with the release of the MSRT tool. Which leads me to think that it is specific to Vista only, I have a Windows 7 computer yet, so I can't speak for seven.

  Any suggestions or ideas? We are scratching our heads on this one.

  Thank you in advance for your time and help

  Your misguided use of registry cleaners could have caused this behavior! If you ever think that your registry database must be cleaned, repaired, amplified, to the point, cured, twisted, fixed or optimized (it isn't), read http://aumha.net/viewtopic.php?t=28099 and draw your own conclusions.
