    Unsure

    um, i have a question about those torrent files that contain anti-virus anti-spyware programs, do these programs that are in these torrents HAVE anti-spyware/virus in them? i downloaded one and it gave me this virus.

    make sure you check the anti-virus program you downloaded for trojans and viruses before you open it.

    Oh the irony.

    Private trackers have ppl that will alert of malware usually. I got a good version of Nod from oink
