Lightbulb flashing ShareazaV4 And Shareaza.Com Are Fake!

The version of Shareaza, called ShareazaV4, currently maintained by Discordia Ltd on Shareaza.com is totally FAKE. It can install spyware and gives you a non-real Shareaza.

You should only update at http://shareaza.sourceforge.net

The latest Shareaza versions (2.3.1.0 and above) has security fixes for this problem. Please update immediately!
