There is currently a problem on forums including this one, with people posting infected Self Extracting Video files which contains a trojan/virus which attempts to steal your personal information (passwords etc.) stored in your browser, messenger etc compromising your personal data. This includes file hosts such as Rapidshare, Megaupload etc., Forums, Paypal, or even worse your credit-cards & Bank information.

If you download a Video in any form of file type (Rar, 001, Zip or something else), which contains anything but a normally expected video file DO NOT OPEN OR RUN IT! No matter what file type you download for a video (Rar, 001, zip or something else), if there is an exe, .bat or anything other than the expected video file, DO NOT OPEN OR RUN IT!

You've been warned :)
