Does utorrent give you a conduit? - SuperDuperSentinel - 04-16-2014 12:13 PM

So I got my new computer and wanted to install a torrent. When I installed utorrent an alert instantly came up from my antivirus that malicious files were attempting to open on my computer (Pup optional Opencandy AND imp installzone.com)

I cancelled the install but then tried again since I downloaded it from the official site itself and have never known them for having viruses...but sure enough, the malicious files were indeed coming from the uTorrent installation.

Whats happening? I know those two are conduits and they can be quite a pain in the behind to remove
