Post The Register // MS clean-up stats shed light on malware infections

Zombie shoot 'em up


Microsoft's anti-virus clean-up tool has removed 16m instances from 5.7m Windows PCs during its first 15 months of operation. Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool (MSRT), the malware removal software which Microsoft releases free of charge and updates every patch Tuesday, has been executed 2.7bn times on 270m computers since its debut in January 2005. Stats from its use present a new perspective on how bad the Windows malware problem really is.?
