This files also corrupted my mp3 & video files like when i run mp3 files it randomly gives a forward speed in b\w then continues,so in that way miss few words of it.
I had avast antivrus when i downloaded it n ran,but was not updated.I now updated the antivirus,now it wont let me open the site("world of books")itself(it says malicious & blocks it).I think this file is not a virus but a script which runs in background can anyone plz help me with this issue n tell something about the coding of file or a suggestion etc.(and i dont want to format my computer due to this small file which disappeared now)
