Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool - January 2006

I'm installing Windows XP in a VM Ware virtual machine for web development and application testing. I'm installing the updates and it asks me about an update with the above title. Knowing full well I have no malicious software on the computer, I uncheck the option to download that tool. It asks me if I really know what I'm doing and even offers to stop bugging me in the future. I choose both of these options. Five minutes later the little warning bubble pops up again and tells me there are new updates. Guess which ones they are? Yup, same one I just told Windows to shut up about. I go through the don't-bug-me-stop-trying process again...and guess what happens? I'll bet you can guess. Same warning a third time.

Fuck you Windows.
