[QUOTE="Ben, post: 2587618, member: 212478"] You could likely have a virus. When you are being transported to different sites, some virus creators make spam links saying you need to download "this" to be able to see the movie.They name it the same as the web site. I see the notice all the time that say I need the plug in to watch a show and I always hit cancel and the show still starts. So for the site I am talking about, it was an unnecessary link. I'm not sure if it was divxden, but that is my favorite site to watch Breaking Bad. As far as removing the virus, you must do more than uninstall divx if it did in fact give you a virus. Most viruses will install files in outside directories and in your system directory. They may also give them the same names as popular processes so they are hard to find. If you want another AV, check AVG Free, or NOD32 Good luck [/QUOTE]
