might have trojan win32 - account got hacked after downloading this mod
Bug #:	4480
File:	FuBar 3.6.5
Date:	04-26-08 01:44 PM
By:	aeriegirl2go
Status:	Unconfirmed
I can't pinpoint that this was the mod that carried the http://s.wowinterface.com/images/style_mmoi_wowi2/smilies/mad.gif trojan win32 that allowed my account to be hacked , but it was one of about 7 mods I downloaded from WowInterface on Sunday, April 20, and my account got hacked on Tuesday, April 22 (I discovered early Wednesday, Tuesday was a rare day that I didn't log on at all). So BE CAREFUL!!!!! Blizzard still hasn't restored my account, it took them 2 days to even respond to my complaint via their site form, at which time they said they refused to communicate with me via e-mail because my e-mail no longer matched the account (DUH! the hacker changed all the vitals on the account: password, security question, etc!). Seriously considering Guild Wars.

Ill test it... not really scared got 4 AV and 3 Spyware kits we'll see also if your downloading from an indirect source (A.K.A not the Author) you need to think about these things before you download. True authors will never bug there own files inless its just for that perpose.

Tested the current Fubar 3.0 on this site is clean checked against:

http://virusscan.jotti.org/
http://www.virustotal.com/

also did quick scans with my MF, WD, and TV nothing else either.

Side note: strange enough though i looked at pervious scans and it showed viruses in them. My own personal though is someone migh have bugged a different file and posted it on another site were you had downloaded this it looked to wierd and might have been trying to see how detectable it was( VERY common for Malicous programmers to do.)
