So i decided to try the Habbo offers aka Earn credits. When i downloaded one, I decided to scan my computer. Anyway I look at the finished scan results and to my shock it said on the file that i just downloaded that it contained a level 4 severity Malware Infection! I'm just glad i scanned it and removed it fast enough! Also it's on the offer "Whitesmoke toolbar" So be careful about the offers!

Cheers David, I'm surprised Habbo haven't looked into this but they don't care about us players anymore

They're more hooked about the profits they make from these virus people paying them for the advertisement!
Email Habbo or something, doubt it'll come to anything but by some miracle it might!
why are you dumb enough to download something from an unknown site in the first place lol

It was posted in the habbo earn credits page. Therefore you would expect it to be safe.

Once they know it's dangerous I think they will remove it I'm sure they did with the mywebtoolbar thing!
Thanks for telling us! :)
