XChat Infected?
« on: December 03, 2008, 07:35:24 pm »

I just wanted to download XChat and my AntiVirus (the best one (using a 2 Engine Search (Bitdefender and their own one)))
It hasnt much wrong Virus messages.

You ought to go to www.silverex.org and download X-Chat 2 - it's free :P

I don't know whether that site will be blocked, but as far as I can see, it's just xchat.org that's been infected - not necessarily the software itself... (and AFAIK X-Chat 2 is independent from X-Chat).

My guess is that it's a false positive. But you need to get the silverex version anyway, the normal version is not free (and the silverex one isfree and still legal...)

Antivirus is a virus within itself.
