Duqu Removal Tool

Duqu is considered by some to be the heir of the infamous Stuxnet malware. Stuxnet was specifically designed to target Siemens industrial Step7 software. It was suspected that Stuxnet was intended to harm the Iranian nuclear effort.

Duqu seems to share parts of the code with Stuxnet and is rather difficult to detect and even harder to remove.

Bitdefender has now developed a free tool that removes all traces of Duqu.

Should you feel the need to feel safe and secure then simply use a free antivirus tool, like Microsoft Security Essentials. Download here.
