actually..these are not officially LW forums..this is the Gnutella Forums, which supports all presently active clients (ok, so we tend to ignore the Morpheus section)...and said users post is the reality..said file can be found floating around..and the responses have been accurate also..it is dangerous to play around with .exe files on p2p...ANY p2p client/network/server....

UnderDog28's attitude of AV scanning is rather short sighted..obviously that one doesn't realize that a scanner is only as good as its definitions...and before a definition can be added, it must be observed as being one...hence, its a bad idea to think that just because you scanned it and it came up clean, that its really clean...I've had files in archives for over a year, and suddenly had them come up as virii infested...and that's a fact...

THE GOLDEN RULE OF DOWNLOADING: everything is your fault..you downloaded it, and you used it...be prepared to reformat and do a clean install at any moment (been there, done that many times)..sure, a jerkwad hacker who wants to control the world added in a trojan/virii/etc, but YOU are the one who executed it....
