   FYI - I did some checking on this to see what happen with the Malicious
software detection tool (MSDT).
  -  MSDT that comes in via Windows Update only runs, then exits and
doesn't "install" and endlessly grind your hard disk
periodically.  Mine took 10 seconds to run.
  -  If you download and install MSDT manually, it won't come in via
Windows Update.   That may be a way to disable it for you; I'm not sure if
it will be updated by Windows Update though.
