PCs Infected with Malware?

Every day, adversaries attempt to invade your networks and infect your
systems with viruses, spyware, and other malware. In other cases, employees
can open the door to malware by visiting infected Web sites, opening the
wrong e-mail attachments, or running macros that contain viruses.

As an IT professional focused on security, you know the risks first hand.
You've installed antivirus software and you keep your protection updated.
Sometimes, though, attacks are successful, and computers get infected. And
once they are inside the organization, malware outbreaks can spread with
alarming speed, compromising or destroying mission-critical data or personal
information.

Restore Infected PCs with the Malware Removal Starter Kit!

When you discover PCs that have been infected with malware and your current
antivirus tools can't solve the problem, where do you turn next? Is there a
way to restore infected PCs without completely rebuilding them from scratch?

The Malware Removal Starter Kit, the newest Solution Accelerator from
Microsoft, provides free, tested guidance to help you combat malware attacks
and restore infected systems-so users can safely get back to work. The kit
shows you how to use the Windows Preinstallation Environment (Windows PE) to
discover malware by performing a thorough offline scan of your computers,
uncovering malware that may be hiding in the operating system. And once
malware is located and identified, it can be quickly removed from infected
PCs with a number of free anti-malware tools, like the Malicious Software
Removal Tool from Microsoft.

The Malware Removal Starter Kit answers questions like:

· What are the keys to a reliable, effective response plan to remedy
malware outbreaks?

· How do I build a bootable CD that lets me perform offline virus
scans?

· How can I discover and remove viruses and other malware hiding in
the operating system?

· How does the Malware Removal Starter Kit augment Microsoft's
anti-malware strategy?
