Watch Out For Annoying .bat Files
 
People New To Limewire....

When Downloading a song or a movie, be sure to watch out for mp3's disguising as .bat files.

Why .bat files are bad you say?

  1. They Have The Power To Open urls without you knowing
  2. They Can Shut Down Your Computer
  3. They Can Copy Themselves To your startup and do annoying things
  4. They Can Open Unwanted Programs Repetitively
  5. They Can Delete Files... Use you imagination of what they can delete...
  6. Your Anti-Virus Cannot Detect them, (There not technically viruses)
If Some One can tell me how can I detect them...
