Winamp = Virus

aloobrain · 29th June 2004, 14:40

My dad told me winamp has a virus but i love winamp.

Does it really have a virus in it or is it just a normal program.

If you downloaded winamp from www.winamp.com/player/ (or another legitimate download site) it does not include any virus, spyware, or adware.

If you got it from Kazaa it may be infected.

Winamp is virus free from the winamp site.

If your dad knows otherwise let him post here and tell us what virus he got from what download.
