    So let me get this straight... You are convinced that OVTune sent you a malware laced product, you are a computer security professional in a past life, and then you attempt to affix the "virused up" files into a public forum by posting file names alone? :pccoffee:

    I'm pretty young, but I wasn't born yesterday. How long do you anticipate your "Results" to take to get back to you as far as the review of them goes?

    I just read the replies to my post. Wow. Ok ya-all good luck. I'll sign off and out and you can keep drinking the "everythin's fine" cool-aid and fire away at anyone who isn't singing the same song and boo them off the stage.

    forget I said anything and deal with it on your own time.
    -over and out.

    All we're saying is that you can't come in throwing accusations with no proof. Just because a "virus blocker" flags a program doesn't immediately make it the devil, and OVT has quite the reputation around here already for making a quality product. It won't get you far around here as this community is very protective of one another and tight knit. Come in with some proof of some kind and people will listen. Come in hot with conjecture and well... This is the outcome

    the issue is your big bold claim without reading up first like everyone else in the OV conversation. no claim without proof. many here are super appreciative of what OV has provided.

    Request your money back if you are convinced you have installed virus laced software and please retreat into the woodwork. You are not helpful. Flash Manager is the only way to flash the tunes. There is nothing wrong with it.

    Maybe he doesn’t have the funding available to finish the turbo kit, thus needing place a Trojan on your PC to hack you bank accounts so he can drain them and send them to a Cayman Islands account for use at his disposal.


    Just a theory....
