Citat:System and method of efficiently identifying and removing active malware from a computer
Abstract
The present invention provides a system, method, and computer-readable medium for identifying and removing active malware from a computer. Aspects of the present invention are included in a cleaner tool that may be obtained automatically with an update service or may be downloaded manually from a Web site or similar distribution system. The cleaner tool includes a specialized scanning engine that searches a computer for active malware. Since the scanning engine only searches for active malware, the amount of data downloaded and resource requirements of the cleaner tool are less than traditional antivirus software. The scanning engine searches specific locations on a computer, such as data mapped in memory, configuration files, and file metadata for data characteristic of malware. If malware is detected, the cleaner tool removes the malware from the computer.

Praktično, patentirali su MSRT, ali... MSRT je samo jedan (i nikako prvi) od gomile AV cleaner alata specijalizovanih za neke specifične infekcije.
Kako neko može da patentira tip programa?
