I Googled for 1C04C61346A1FA3139A37D860ED92632AA13DECF
The first dozen results were related to Torrents, which I have never used.

Result 11 of 18 was

SysProt AntiRootkit v1.0.1.0 by swatkat ...
... Object: C:\Documents and Settings\Kelland\Application Data\Adobe\Flash Player\AssetCache\5SQ9YV37\1C04C61346A1FA3139A37D860ED92632AA13DECF.heu Status: ...
www.geekstogo.com/forum/post-a32410-.html - Cached - Similar

Google did not warn me that this site would damage my computer,
and I recognised geekstogo.com as a site I use and trust,
so I clicked on the first line "SysProt AntiRootkit v1.0.1.0 by swatkat",
and was horrified to find a zip file presented with choices of run or download.
Because I trust my defences I allowed the download (but definitely not RUN).

I then selected "www.geekstogo.com/forum/post-a32410-.html" and pasted into the Firefox address bar.
Yet another Untitled TAB and immediate ZIP download without any options offered.

The Firefox download manager reports the download link as
http:\\www.geekstogo.com/forum/post-a32410-.html
FOR YOUR SAFETY the above is corrupted, for http:\\www please understand http://www
The download file is SysProtLog.zip size 202,082 bytes

Is it normal practice for this site to download a ZIP file when a Google html link is clicked ?

Has some-one managed to post a spam type topic ?

I Googled for 1C04C61346A1FA3139A37D860ED92632AA13DECF because I suddenly received in a new folder
C:\Documents and Settings\Dad\Application Data\Adobe\Flash Player\AssetCache\75EJ9GA4
554 KB in these 3 files

1C04C61346A1FA3139A37D860ED92632AA13DECF.swz
cacheSize.txt

And NO, NO, a thousand time NO, I have never got involved with torrents,
even though most of the Google results seem to be involved in that activity ! ! !
