    Default Virus Alert at Betfair. Help Req

    Hi all,

    I went to DL Betfair for some freeroll fun but when I went to execute the file, my AV said it had found a virus: Email-Worm.Win32.Warezov.do and quarantined the infected files which were filepile103.dat and filepile3.dat. This meant the software couldn't be installed. To do so means disabling the AV and accepting the virus.

    A quick search on the internet showed that it's not a nice thing to have so I contacted Betfair but they were useless so here I am asking for your help.

    Has anyone come across this themselves? Would any of you attempt to DL and install the software to see if you get the same alert? Doing so would help me in determining if it's a one off (me) or is affecting anyone who tries to DL from betfair.com.


    Thx

    The first mistake is downloading Betfair for freerolls - they stopped doing proper freerolls almost a year ago, you need passwords for all of them now.

    FWIW I recently downloaded the client to check out the action at the LHE tables and AVG didnt flag it up.

    Its probably a false positive.

    Awhile back, I used to get virus warnings like this for the Party Poker client. But then, all of a sudden, I didn't get any anymore (after I formatted (?))

    No mistake - I have passwords.

    Now my machine is infected and all sorts of crazy shit is going on. Guess it was real after all. Watch out if you find the same.
