Exe are programmes i was once told if you want to find a virus go to task manager all .exe are viruses ... that person was a idiot
Never download exetentions for games of videos
a popular trick is to make a vid that looks like its from you tube with the gray sider at the bottem or from windowes movie play then it will harmlesly ask to run a update or sumthing and BAM your infected
If you think a programme is fishy there is one sure fire way to know it legit ... a forum if the programme has a forum were people comment and it gets updates and feed back ect you know its fine
Sometimes virus giving site dont have a fourm but have a apparent support desk sometimes i go on try to call and say your product has given my a virus and the usal responce is something like
this product is screen throughly but as stated in our TOA we canot accept any respociblity for damage to your computer while this software is active blah blah blah
just a note though sometimes i have got genuin help and support from these help desks and have found there programmes to be legit
