Why on earth are you releasing a link to a virus on a forum?

[whatdoiputhere]

cause im stupid and i assume people in this forum are smart enough not to download it

 

also people can spam upload it to virus total so all the av companies know about it

Cool! I can download a virus! now I don't need to download so much stuff to find Viri!

 

kidding, please no one download it if you don't know what you are doing.

Post the VirusTotal.com result, and not the actual link to malware.

the virus called its self a "steam app launcher" in the properties tab and had an arma 3 logo so i assume i got it though a steam workshop mod. if it was fud until now then i think its possible
