Hi,

Along time ago, when I used to use Limewire, I downloaded a version of Panda Antivirus without thinking of the risks. It messed my computer and network up bad. Spybot did not pick the problem up. Is it alright if i post the file here? Or email it to a moderator? This infection needs to be stopped before someone else gets it!

Limewire, Panda Antivirus or a crack?

ahh sorry i was speaking unclearly

I downloaded a version of panda antivirus OFF of Limwire.

the problem is the PANDA ANTIVIRUS. Limewire is fine.

So, the panda anti virus files were what messed everything up.

thanks

below is another file off of limewire. I have not installed it but i can bet it is a virus because a anti virus program is not that small in size.

I PUT THIS IN BOLD SO PEOPLE WILL SEE
I HAVE ATTACHED A ZIP FILE. I AM POSITIVE IT CONTAINS SOME SORT OF HARMFUL SOFTWARE. DO NOT OPEN IT UNLESS YOU ARE ONE OF THE MODS THAT HELP THE COMPANY

REMOVED. -tashi

If you used P2P to download an Anti-Virus Program I doubt the program you received was a legitimate copy.
