I'm wondering if anyone keeps getting bugged to install SDMSetup.exe I'm not sure if it's coming from websites that have a certain advertisement on them, that when moused over, will pop it up. I'm not infected by anything at the moment, but it kinda reminds me of when you stumble onto that SpywareDoctor (rouge antivirus) popup that says you're infected. Anyone know exactly where this is coming from?

Looks to be some sort of Adware.

If you are constantly being prompted to install it, then it makes me suspect you already have something on your system. Is it a certain website that is doing it to you? Or where ever you go that file appears?

i found it! it was an advertisement on the page that counts down and has a green download button. even if i don't click it, if i mouse over it, it prompted the download. it was driving me insane. thanks for your input :) i hope others might be aware of it, so careful everyone!
