    i clicked onto this celebrity entertainment page with news and pictures www.taod.com and was going to look at the picture section. but everytime i clicked on the image gallery a message box popped uped asking me to download default.exe and it gave the website http://mmm.media-motor.net/soft/
    i tried to go to just http://mmm.media-motor.net but nothing came up but a blank page
    i went to http://mmm.media-motor.net/soft and there were a few files to chose from..
    default.exe
    roing18.ocx
    whCC-MOTOR.exe

    im not sure what this file is and was wondering if its just a media file i need to go through this site, or if its something bad that i shouldnt click to download
    any ideas?
    i wasnt sure where to post this, figured if its spyware then it goes here
    any help is appriciated, thanx

    Hi FNK

    A good rule of thumb is that if you don't know EXACTLY what something is, don't mess with it! I NEVER download or install anything from a site I know little about. Of course, I'm Paranoid ;)
