    Default Apparent ManyCams virus?

    I've been seeing a lot of updates on Twitter saying that the program ManyCams is popping up with a supposed update, but it contains a virus when you open it. Just seemed like something that would be good to spread as much as possible. Luckily I'm lazy and never update ANYTHING so I just closed the window without updating it before I even saw the alerts on Twitter that there's a virus! -bullet dodged-

    Wow, no wonder when i wanted to update ManyCams my virus killer blocked the address & said it's a threat bla bla, i was like wtf, these software updates should not be harmful, they just updates. The file i was about to download had a very long tripled name instead of setup.exe so I canceled the download/ update cause i was about to cam and did not wanted to loose time looking around for more info. Thanks for telling this xxx

    I'm pretty sure that's a false positive again. AVG was flagging it a few months ago till they fixed it.

    If in doubt download the update directly from the manycam site. If it's working though, no need to update it immediately.
