ermmmmmmmm

for so long i've try to avoid using texmod, and its the correct move, because I downloaded texmod several days ago, unzip the contents onto my desktop, and proceed to get the cartography map, I guess I am lucky the map took a long time to download, which discourages me to use texmod, and also i have no idea how to run the thing lol. so phewwww... chuck it into the trash as soon as i found the trojan, it was listed as high risk

so this morning I scan my computer for possible threat and guess what I found

trojan.onlinegame.asai

I am one of those paranoid and have lots of time on their hand people who scan their computer alot. and i am sure that wasn't there before texmod was downloaded.

Download link was from Guild Wars Official Wiki.

Just thought you want to know.

oh and Tor Button is unsafe to use with Firefox 3 see picture

I'd never download anything linked from a wiki unless it's from a protected page. Any idiot could replace the link with a link to his own 'enhanced' version of the download.

Anyone I've ever talked to has usually signed up to a website with the same email and password as their GW login.

Tips: Never use the email from your GW account to sign up to a webbie, ALWAYS use another. I have several emails myself.
A firewall and antivirus software are a must!
