Suspicious file on Nexus

Post » Fri Jul 22, 2011 3:46 pm

anon3211xbox (who just registered) uploaded "Fallout New Vegas Advanced Manager-DevGECK patched" to Nexus (http://www.newvegasnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=42959)

Posting here instead of the Nexus forums because the file author is named "bethesda" and his description is a bit vague apart from "being able to create BSA archives without ArchiveInvalidation" and even says not to ask if it's a virus.

It just sounds a bit phishy.

Yeah, I would send a message to Gstaff, the community manager, immediately about this.

Planned to do so after I made this thread, but they're already at work. Was a bit hasty making this thread, I think.

I downloaded this on my old PC to see if it's really a virus. The description had me concerned. Anyway, if it's totally illegal I'll kill it from my drive.

I think it is just the GECK renamed to Devgeck?
