McAfee Klez Removal Tool Description
McAfee Klez Removal Tool is a simple-to-use application designed to scan your computer for the Klez worm and get rid of it. This is a security threat capable of spoofing the From field of your emails and sending messages with itself to email addresses found in the Windows Address Book and in personal text documents, in order to infect others.
Find and remove the Klez worm easily
It also tries to unload some processes of anti-malware solutions in order to disarm the computer. The Klez worm multiplicates by copying itself on machines in your local network, in order to spread the infection, provided that it gains the necessary permission level.
There is no installation involved since you can double-click the downloaded executable file to bring up the main window of McAfee Klez Removal Tool and simply click the "Start" button to initialize the scanning operation.
Run the app with admin rights
However, you must have administrator permission to be able to do this. Also, if you have an anti-malware application installed that has a real-time engine, you should disable it in order to avoid any software issues that could lead to system failure.
The program proceeds to verify common malware hiding spots on your hard disk, including the "Program Files" and "Windows" directories. You can sit back and relax while the scanning operation is carried out, as well as check out the full path to the currently checked object.
Simple solution for removing the Klez worm
If the Klez worm is identified, then you are informed of this as well as of the fact that it has been removed, along with any associated files or registry entries.
The tool worked smoothly on Windows 10 in our tests and finished the scanning operation in reasonable time. Just keep in mind that it cannot protect you from getting infected with Klez again so you should install a reliable anti-malware software solution unless you already have one.
