I just received it. I was scared the heck out because programs dont download itself by itself. I managed to google it before it was fully downloaded. It seems its fake and tries to make you buy it and it also tries to remove your anti virus/malware programs also. I tried to close it but it wouldnt work and it even popped up at the box on bottom right where you click volume at. I was so scared but luckily I shut down my computer before it fully downloaded. =P

I haven't experienced this thankfully but I would say the best thing to do is to close it as quickly as possible as soon as something like that pops up. Ah! noticed that you had a problem closing it! Yes, you took the best course of action I guess. Do you have antivirus installed on your system? I use Norton 360 myself and it does absolutely everything and I'm pretty sure that it would notice something like what you have described. Anyway, hopefully that's the last time you will experience something like that. Andrew

hi gamingworld my son told me that some of those self loading or apparently self loading programs contain viruses so I would really steer away from them if I were you. The virus would try to get rid of any anti virus ware.
