There are a few Computer Viruses that actually remove other viruses from computers they infect; the most common one is called Netsky (though its creator actually named it Skynet). They were written by Sven Jachsan, a German who now works for a security company there called Securepoint. Though not actually harmful, Netsky is still considered malware (specifically, a worm) because it is installed on computers and spreads without the user's consent.
