My Security Software

I've used mconfig several times, which reminds me that i need to go through my stuff again. I haven't ever used mrt.exe or SFC /SCANNOW nor have i ever attempted a security scan via internet, though I don't know if it would work at all the way my system is setup, i might have to temporarily take it from behind my wireless router so that the scan can actually get through and not be blocked. (or i could just change my settings)
After reading this thread I can't help but be curious as to how this thread came into being. i don't like to comment really, but curiousity is a weak point of mine.

First of all, I'd just like to say Hi to everyone. This is my first post and, well, hi. :)
I am a military IT and work on several computer problems daily (software and hardware failures mostly).

I would have thought the Military had their own Software, tailor made for each situation.
The military wouldn't let me just work on millions of dollars worth of equipment if I didn't know what i was doing, so OBVIOUSLY I know SOMETHING about computers.

It scares me really that you wouldn't just ask your IT department head if in doubt, especially regarding security matters, and come to a non military Forum looking for advice .

Maybe there's more going on here than meets the eye ?
