On my Win7 system I was trying to watch some videos of format *.mkv, but
I needed a new codec so went to https://www.cows7codecs.com/ and
clicked on the Download button and got this message
"https://www.cows-cows.7.codec.pack.v4.2.5.setup.XXX.part
could not be saved, because an unknown error occurred."
and my AVG anti-virus started up and opened a screen saying it had been
quarantined ....
"Threat secured. We have moved qWtOEP1H.exe.part to your Quarantine
because it was infected with Win32:Malware-gen."
My SM Download Manager shows that I've downloaded 10.6 MB of 44.3MB
(over four attempts)!
Should I be worried??
If I should be thankful that AVG saved me from myself, does anyone have
a suggestion as to how/what I can do so I can watch these (15GB of)
video files??
TIA
Dump what ever you are trying to use for videos and get either or both
MPC and VLC.
MPC is small and fast. VLC can do almost anything with vids.
Also, it's never a good idea to post a link to malware.
Expecially not to an executable.
