Exclamation Virus Threat!!


Anyone is using DAP 8 i.e. Download Accelrator Plus 8. Search your computer for the file RestartApp.exe This File Contains a Virus. I found it with Avast! 4.7 Home Edition latest update 652-00. If you have any other antivirus, I don't know whether it will detect or not. If it is Avast Profesional, It will Detect.

Trail downloads of DAP includes Adware, not virus. Adwares don't do any harm, but ofcourse we all want a healthy PC in all ways..right?

I don't think it was a adware. But when the warning came, the window said that it was a Virus or Worm.
