So I want to watch videos on my computer in AVI format. If I get a XviD codec here http://www.xvidmovies.com/codec/ will something happen to my computer? I have Norton right now.
 
Yes it is perfectly safe from that site. That is the site that Microsoft points you to get that codec so it is fine. I have it on all of my computers and haven't had any problems from it.
 
ive been seeing comments that xvid is safe, but im uncertain if it is. i recently removed a trojan virus from my laptop buy installing Windows 7. Xvid was one of the files that was part of the virus. I dont know if maybe it had just gotten infected or if it was the problem from the start. Is there a certain site where Xvid is safe to download from? Im trying to watch movies from watch-movies.net.in and to watch the movies it asks to install Xvid Codec
