Use Microsoft’s free tools to get rid of spam

Microsoft has been working hard to help you in your fight to remove and keep viruses and malicious software from your computer. Microsoft Defender has been improved and is now in beta 2 status. I downloaded and tested both of these programs tonight and they seem very easy to use.

Microsoft® Windows® Malicious Software Removal Tool

Microsoft Defender 2

You may have to jump through a few hoops to validate your Windows installation, but after that, it should be smooth sailing using both programs. They download updates automatically, and can be ran in the background as you do other things.
