offline version not at address specified

[Ben Opit]

I miss read the site it automatically downloaded the online version. I failed to see the link underneath. Might be a good idea to make the offline version a little more prevalent if you have the option too. Although its possible there are more intelligent people in the world then me and who can see a link in front of them

If you have been directed to a similar, but different name, you should assume that your PC has been compromised, and I would strongly advise obtaining a standalone virus checker, using a known secure machine, and running it against your machine.  Avira and Kaspersky provide such tools, which are free, provided you do not require any support.
