[Windows] Junkware Removal Tool (JRT)

[jwoegerbauer]

Came across this freeware utility: [current version 6.1.2 (02.20.2014)].

To see how it does, ran it on my Windows 8 64-bit computer. Did its job as expected. Needed 1 hr to complete the scan/repair.

BTW: You must run it as Administrator.

Don't know whether integration of Junkware Removal Tool within Malwarebytes Anti-Malware (MBAM) already took place: I'm not using MBAM. May be, because it was announced so.

The stand-alone JRT program was remained intact for those who wish to use it. Like me.

For curiosity's sake installed and ran MBAM (freeware edition): no harmful software(s) found - nothing cleaned.
Then right after ran JRT: 11 potential harmful softwares found - and cleaned.
