O.P. Shocked  Stuff-Plug NG new Version contained VIRUS!!!!!!!!!!!
I opened the Stuff-Plug-Ng the newest version 0.7 something......i opened it my anti-virus protection was not on and it was W32/Parite B!!!!!!!!

THIS VIRUS IS UNREMOVAABLE AND SPREADS LIKE WILDFIRE!!!!!!!


I did not have my antyi-virus protection running @ the time and it f**ked my pc!

I have wiped it now and had my anti-virus running...ran the Stuff-Plu setup and it picked up the virus and stopped it this time!!!!!

Be weary!

It totaled up to over 900 Parite B's because they copy themselves and when you remove them copy themselves back!!!!! :o:o:o:o:o

Anyone had the same problem!?

It wasnt the StuffPlug installer, it was ur pc. Parite is a nasty virus and copies itself to every exe in ur pc. Sometimes removing it damages the exe as well. If i were u i would do a clean reboot without backing up an exe :(

EDIT - post just a bit late, didnt see ur last post

I somehow believe this is a coincidence what likely happened is something else infected your computer. Or you downloaded Stuffplug from an illegitimate source, if you don't download it from the main site you can't be sure that the file you're downloading is actually a Virus. However Stuff-Plug NG does now contain Screenshot Sender 3, that has got an install script in that some antivirus software recognise as a malicious script...If you selected to install SS3 while installing StuffPlug-NG you may have gotten a warning about a malicious script, however this is not related to the virus you're describing...

WTF?!
Stuffplug containing a virus?!
no fucking way dude -_-
And besides, anti-virus wont alert because screenshot sender can be installed too, i'll be downloaded on demand....
Some mods please delete this topic, this is just the worst bullshit ever -_-

That virus is a pain in the ass to remove (it hooks explorer.exe)... I had to clean a friend's computer, a lot of EXEs infected, it spreaded pretty fast.
