Why PCSX2? - AmuletOfNight - 12-13-2009

PCSX2 seems to have a virus in their plugins....Trojan.FakeAlert, it hijacks your browser and tells you to get anti-virus software and then infects you more. Great. Thank god for Malwarebyte's Anti-Malware!

Beware of PCSX2

You should tell them in the PCSX2 forums

So where did you download it from?

Pretty sure you'd see lots of negatives here somewhere if it's in the official code...

I was using PCSX2 for ages, no viruses so far

Malwarebyte's Anti-Malware! and SuperAntiSpyware are the best programs of this type, but false alarms happen.
No, there aren't any viruses in pcsx2 repo, unless some of the devs accidentally sent infected files, which is higly unlikely.

As an retired member of pcsx2 I can 100% assure you there is no virus in pcsx2. Its the anti virus miss-iding something.
