Free Microsoft Standalone System Sweeper Beta for Widows 7 SP1

A free security solution from Microsoft is designed to deal with the most severe infections that leave computers virtually unusable, save for a clean install of Windows after a hard drive formatting.

Windows customers might already be familiar with such technologies as the Microsoft Safety Scanner or Microsoft Security Essentials 2.0.

Malicious code and malware attacks have evolved considerably from those of the past century. At the core of this evolution is the cybercriminals' focus on making money rather than rendering PC useless.

While viruses are a dying bread, rootkits, spam bots, Trojans, scareware, etc. are thriving. However, there are scenarios in which malware infections are so severe that users are left with dead machines.

This is where the Standalone System Sweeper Beta comes in. The security solution can be used to put together a bootable CD, DVD or USB – a clean computer needs to be used for this.
