Due to the recent happenings, I would like to address the use of Public Bots. We will try to police this section best as we can and deter people who are adding viri to their programs. So in order to better protect yourself please follow these steps"
1)Download and install sandboxie
2) Always virus scan any and all files before use. You can uplopad files to the following sites.
http://www.virustotal.com/ or http://virusscan.jotti.org/en
3)Run the program in sandboxie.
4) You can also run the programs in a Virtual Machine. Vmware is pretty good for this.
5)Use common sense. Some people are obviously not trusted.
6)Wait for someone to let you know if a file is clean or not
These are just some simple things you can do in order to better protect yourself. I also suggest having some sort of protection installed on your computer. Nod32, AVG, Norton, anything is better than nothing
