Can't find "Malicious Software Removal Tool"

I my PC just performed an automatic update. I noticed that one of the things it was installing was something called "Malicious Software Removal Tool ". Interesting. After the PC rebooted I thought I'd run the MSRT, but I can't find it. I thought it might be in the Security Center or Administrative Tools, but it's not in either of those two spots. Where is it? How do I run it?

Thanks.

After the download, this tool runs once to check your computer for infection by specific, prevalent malicious software (including Blaster, Sasser, and Mydoom) and helps to remove any infection found. If an infection is found, the tool will display a status report the next time you start your computer. A new version of the tool will be offered every month. This tool is not a replacement for an anti-virus product. To help protect your computer, you should use an anti-virus product.
If you want to manually run the tool on your computer, you can download a copy from the Microsoft Download Center or run an online version from microsoft.com.

 

When it is downloaded from the updates site it places it's files in the Temp directory then removes itself once it finishes. You can download the tool then run it anytime.

Thanks for the info.

 

Also you can go to C:\Windows\Debug\mrt..... and you will find the report in notepad form, after MSRT has run. It will give you the date, time and results.

 

You're welcome.
