If you read the Blues you'll know this already, but there are some fake addon updates posted on Curse Gaming atm pretending to be a KLH Threatmeter and a Deadly Boss Mods update.  Both contain an .exe file in the download package.

Both downloads are NOT updates and they are not from the original author - both downloadpages contain warnings from other site users that this is a trojan package but as yet Curse have not yet taken the downloads off the website.

Beware.  I use Curse a lot for updates, it's a good website.  I also use both the above mods and want updates, but the fake uploads fooled one of my guild mates.  Make sure that the zip file does not contain an unwanted .exe before you install it and READ the comments at the bottom fo the pages before you download!

I'm very cautious when installing mods, they all get individual virus scans and I go through all the folders and check for any dubious looking file extensions.
