BoltBait Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 Paint.net doesn't come with a file called Install.exe. You probably downloaded a virus pretending to be Paint.NET. Try downloading from the link in the upper right corner of this page: http://www.dotpdn.com/downloads/pdn.html Quote Download: BoltBait's Plugin Pack | CodeLab | and a Free Computer Dominos Game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

david.atwell Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 Yeah, this should be a note to everyone everywhere: Do not download Paint.NET from any site that is not getpaint.net or dotpdn.com. If you already did, remove whatever it installed and run your antivirus program's "full scan". Very sorry to hear you got tricked, Red Lion. My favorite pub in Indianapolis is called the Red Lion. Quote The Doctor: There was a goblin, or a trickster, or a warrior... A nameless, terrible thing, soaked in the blood of a billion galaxies. The most feared being in all the cosmos. And nothing could stop it, or hold it, or reason with it. One day it would just drop out of the sky and tear down your world.Amy: But how did it end up in there?The Doctor: You know fairy tales. A good wizard tricked it.River Song: I hate good wizards in fairy tales; they always turn out to be him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
