> We would like to introduce visitors to an exciting and valuable new
> resource available at CastleCops called the Malware Removal 
> and Prevention
> procedure. This procedure is designed to enable users to 
> either partially,
> or fully clean their systems without the direct aid of an expert. It
> provides instructions on how to perform a series of 
> antispyware, antivirus
> and antitrojan scans, as well as, run a system cleaning utility. The
> generalized scanners we recommend are intended to address a 
> broad spectrum
> of malware including adware, spyware, trojans, viruses, and browser
> hijackers. Soon it will become standard practice for all 
> HijackThis (HJT)  
> posters to perform malware removal before posting a HJT log. 
> The ideas and
> suggestions of numerous staff members have contributed to the 
> development
> of the final product. We even took a staff poll to decide on 
> a name but
> such catchy monikers such as "Purging the Parasites" and "Zapping the
> Crap' were rejected in favor of the humdrum but more descript Malware
> Removal and Prevention (MRP).
