Hello,

For some reason, when I'm opening any iFolder link, AVG blocks the link and it tells me: "Script/Exploit

The Script/Exploit is not a virus, is it a heuristic scan warning, that there is a file on your computer which is able to use a security hole. It is necessary for such a program to have rights to change the Windows registry settings, and the program gets these rights by a dirty trick. This script does not contain any destructive action. If such a file is present on your computer, it is necessary to delete this file to avoid any further security damage done to your computer."

So, is it safe to download from iFolder?

I have AVG antivirus too, but i don't have any warnings.
I've just visited [ Hidden Text ] page for testing.

It's not safe to download files that were splitted to several parts by ifolder program.
(it's happening when you uload files larger than 100mb, ifolder splits them and generate several links)

the files have 'exe' extension in this case (if i remember right)

That's why I say we should forbid doing so. look.gif

Still no one cares.

Mikhail, +1!

Fortunately these instances are rather rare, 'cause most of people know about this TM-packer bullshit, so simonitro don't worry, ifolder's ok smile1.gif

No! Ifolder is infected!
poor Simonitro, your comp now is an AIDS infection bearer, dude!
and if you'll speak with someone using skype, msn and so on, you'll infect them as well!
so don't do it! just isolate your comp from internet access, throw it out of the window, hide in basement or figure out smth!
I really mourn your loss,dude.
Cheerz.

Sure, its not safe. As we know, all illegal files are to be infected. So better go and buy original CD.
