Where do I find it???

[Kirk]

I installed it from Windows update, but where is it??
There's no icon and I can't find it in Programs or in
search. What do I have to do to launch the darn thing??

Kirk;
You did not install Microsoft AntiSpyware from Windows Update.
However you may have run the Microsoft Windows Malicious Software Removal
Tool from Windows Update.
It does not install, it searches for the specific malware and then is gone.

These are the two tools you may be confusing:
Microsoft Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool

Microsoft Windows AntiSpyware

You probably installed the virus removal tool(s) There
won't be any executable.

Thanks for getting me straightened out!
