miranda - issue #1786

Installing the Vosteran malware is suggested by the Miranda installer


Posted on Jan 12, 2015 by Quick Bird

Miranda Version : several Unicode Build : Yes Test Build # (if applicable) : Plugin Version # (if applicable) :

What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Following the update link 2. Downloading and running the installer 3. Not being observant and just clicking all "Accept" buttons

What is the expected result? That nothing but Miranda IM is installed, and that no suggestions to install anything else are made.

What happens instead? A suggestion to install the Vosteran malware appears after the Mirand IM has been installed. If the user isn't observant and just clicks the "Accept" button, the Vosteran malware will be installed and cause lots of trouble.

Please attach or post your VersionInfo. The current and (at least) the previous installer suggested by the update function in Miranda.
