Keeping your computer safe can be a demanding thing. Often we decide to take the easy way out and just have a program that we either bought or downloaded handle the details of keeping our system clean from spyware and malware. The problem is, sometimes, we trust in the wrong program. MS Removal Tool is one of those wrong programs.
MS Removal Tool is a rogue anti-spyware program, a piece of rogue software that pretends that it is a legitimate product. It enters your system via Trojan programs, fake online scanners and the occasional infected website. When it manages to install itself into your system, it will start a “scan”. This “scan” isn’t real – it’s actually fake and will always have one result: that your computer is full of malware and that you need some heavy-duty help to get it clean.
Then, it will “kindly” suggest that you buy the “full version” of it to solve all of your problems. If you don’t take it up in its suggestion, expect MS Removal Tool to start blocking programs left and right, saying that they have been infected by malware. It will also keep pestering you to buy its full version with warning messages. Don’t believe ay of it – the only malware infection in your system is MS Removal Tool itself and you need to get it off your system ASAP! Here’s how to do it.

Symptoms Of Infection
- Your computer is acting slow. MS Removal Tool slows down your system significantly. This includes starting up, shutting down, playing games, and surfing the web.
- You are getting pestered with pop ups. MS Removal Tool infects your registry and uses it to launch annoying pop up ads out of nowhere.
- Searches are redirected or your homepage and desktop are settings are changed. This is a symptom of a very serious MS Removal Tool infection.
Dangers Of Infection
Viruses like MS Removal Tool will infect your registry and other important system files. If the infection is not treated it can cause a complete collapse of your system.
Some MS Removal Tool infections contain spyware and keyloggers which can be used to record sensitive data like passwords, credit card, bank account, and social security numbers. The longer you allow the infection to fester, the greater the chance of identity fraud.
