I was reading through some old threads and came across a recommendation for the xvid player Vidomi. All versions of this player come with a keystroke recording spyware! I was shocked when Pest Patrol found it and removed it from my download that came directly from Vidomi (unfortunately, a couple weeks after installation), and the spyware is common knowledge in various chat rooms. Beware!

I'll be sure to email Chickenman about this one (ROFLMAO), It's a good idea to provide some legitimate proof.

Yeah, I suppose some proof would make my assertation more credible. I know Pest Patrol creates a log, but I've never viewed it after it cleaned my pc. (Can't do it now because I'm not at that pc right now.) I will see if i can find that and post a portion of it. Meanwhile, why don't you dl Vidomi and check it? This is a serious security issue that all should be aware of. I'm not playing around here. Also, log on to the "movies horror movies" chat room in winmx and ask about it.

I uninstalled it after it tried to connect to the internet right before it asked me if I wanted to.

You uninstalled "it" after you tried to connect to the internet? Vidomi is just a DivX player& encoder.
