not a warning, but a security tip (not sure if it fits in this thread):

("This add-on has not been reviewed by Mozilla.")

avast! already protects against some "Rick Roll"s - they are detected as HTML:Agent-X[Joke]  ;)

Hello community :D
I joined the forums because some minutes ago while downloading a book torrent a friend of mine suggested, this message appeared/appears, in an infinite loop.
After the first few times of it reappearing, I deleted everything that on first glance is related to the particular torrent and ended the process of utorrent, but I am afraid of it having managed to 'dig' deeper in the PC.
Anyway, I have 2 questions.
Should I worry, and why I cannot get rid of the message?
Cheers!

(p.s. I have tried all actions except for 'ignore' and the message still reappears)

Most torrent files have malware!

is it? It's not the virus per se (for now) I have the problem with. It's the message that I cannot get rid off and don't know why.

That is  because your system is infected with malware!  ::)
