Yeah guys, I saw the part about it running automatically, but there are some
times that I like to run it manually after visiting a suspious site or
something and the help pages say nothing about that. Also when it's
downloaded automatically as part of Microsoft updage there is noting that
says where it is and the name can't be searched if you don't know that it's
called mrt.exe and not msrt.exe.
