Keldyn Posted February 6, 2002 Share Posted February 6, 2002 I think the threat of viruses has always been a very real danger too. Its easy enough to rename a file and just wait for someone unsuspecting to download it. I was reading an article about this a few months back and on morpheus alone , after doing a couple of searches it was riddled with infected files. But then, i suppose, its just common sense to have an up to date virus scanner these days when using the internet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassman Posted February 6, 2002 Share Posted February 6, 2002 i downloaded a virus once when i was tired and lazy one nite. ALWAYS check downloaded files for viruses.....it's just a context menu away. I got lazy and got burned. but it is not just morpheus, anything you download could be trouble. just a big "duh" if ya ask me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joel Posted February 6, 2002 Share Posted February 6, 2002 My NAV picked a file up as a virus as soon as it finished downloading from Morpheus, glad to see that it's doing more of a job than I thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
