Virus in Graal.exe? Fact or Myth?

I just called up my freind in Canada today, Golden Slayer (GP Captain) of Classic, and I found out that his Computer got a virus from the graal client. Then crashed his computer, I dont know what to think about this but, there might be a way for this to be true. The Graal FileServers open up a Direct Link with you and all the other players so a hacker could easily hack you. I dont know how secure the server is but it is possible.

It's a myth, otherwise no one would post here.

Their mught be no virus, but it may be very possible for the hacking to occur. Kyle, Golden Slayer works for me as GP Chief on Manatra2001 so we talk on the phone alot, his mother told me his Graal days may be over because of this. If you want his Phone Number so you can call him just ask me, and then I will PM you it. He dont like Collect calling but it is ok, he lives in Canada and I live in US, but if you live out of either 2 countries he be broke so dont.

ok first of all there is no virus in graal (that you download from graals website).

the ONLY way there could be a virus in it is if you got the file from someone else then Graal. Or else if a virus you got some other way infects your exe files some how.

But there is no virus on any of the files on Graals website.

This thread should be deleted.
