Microsoft has published a 'Malicious Software Removal Tool'. It is install at
a secrect location on disk under a secret name. The refuse to tell us how to
use it. The tool has a command line interface. That does do any good unless
they publish the name of the tool.

Does anyone know the name of the tool and how to find it?
