What's skidrow.exe? Is it a safe executable? I've researched a bit and haven't found anything convincing yet.

See,

DO NOT click on anything on that page. It's for info only.

Run a deep scan with,

Update it before you run it.

skidrow.exe, is not a good thing to click on! Usually seen from gaming sites. It is a worm/trojan/virus. Don't even think about clicking the file. Out of interest how did you get it?

Do a full scan with the free version of MalwareBytes update it. Run 'Perform full scan@ and post back the results.

Thanks LH and Mike!

To Mike, I got it after downloading a game. I checked the files and saw that one which I thought was suspicious. I guess I better buy the game then XD.
