The Malicious Software Removal Tool is primarily an antispyware product. People who have used the tool and reported on its functionality say that it never tells you what spyware it is actually removing. The problem I have with it is the concept that it only removes "malicious" spyware. Does this mean that it leaves all those ad-tracking spyware systems installed? Surely they are not meant to be malicious. And since Microsoft sells advertising a la Google on its search engine, it seems unlikely that they'd want to kill that advertising "feature." This seems to explain, to me at least, why the tool doesn't do any detailed reporting. I'll pass, thank you, and stick with the various commercial products that do give me the details. Apparently the tool is kind of spyware itself, since it reports back to HQ with data on what it has done on your machine. It's not that I care that Microsoft has a huge database of spyware infections and their relative popularity. It's just that I have yet to see what good any of this has done me. They never release the data. So what's the point? The company's argument that it collects this data so it can do a better job doesn't wash with me, given how secretive Microsoft always tends to be. For all I know they are going to push some spyware out there themselves and market it as foolproof.
