I downloaded the KB890830 Malicious Software removal
tool. After download, I can't find out how to run the
program. No icon or Program to click on. Help, What do I
do now?

It runs automatically (and is off topic here). If you didn't get a message
then it didn't detect anything. It only detects a relatively small number
of items anyway and is not a substitute for a normal anti-virus.

The Microsoft Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool helps remove specific,
prevalent malicious software from computers that are running Windows Server
2003, Windows XP, or Windows 2000

The tool is
Windows-KB890830-ENU.exe (probably in your default download folder).
The results are in C:\Windows\Debug\mrt.log
