rightio I go on simba forums and I get a PM.
Please download your update at:

*LINK* (NOT LINKING AS PER REQUEST AND SO NO ONE CAN CLICK ON IT)

From this guy.

http://villavu.com/forum/member.php?u=129857

And I should have known better as there is no way something other than the client would know there is an update so without thinking I downloaded.
I extracted and double clicked it.
And malware bytes blocked it as it was a trojan.
SO PLEASE BE CAREFUL GUYS PLEASE RAISE AWARENESS!!!!!!!!

This is the second time in a short while. Maybe there could be an announcement warning users, as people who have only just joined us may easily be misled by the PMs.

As a note to everyone:
Look at who sends you links, and try not to click links without checking them out first.
Even links posted on threads may not be safe! Look at the trustworthiness of the poster: is he at post 5, or at post 300?

If you ever doubt anything, ask a member/mod/admin to verify it for you!

If you ever see a "script" that is an executable or requires additional installs (except for ObjectDTM) - then doubt it until it has been verified! There is no reason you can't be safe instead of sorry! :)

Simba / SRL will never be distributed by a PM to users. It always comes through official announcements or the software itself.

Got a pm From SRL_simba or something with the same bs, surprisingly if you clicked the link it automatically would download and insert a keylogger

nice website.... No confirmation or messages. Deleted it right away and reported it on irc
