Virus on PDF?

[Last Hope]

Hey there.
Admins, I need to complain about several viruses that have been on the forum. I downloaded a clip from here, after which whenever i open PDF, my laptop restarts. I have seen several complains already for the same reason.
Regards.

downloaded a clip from PDF?

it must be from third party website as the PDF does not host any videos. What is PDF's fault in it?

Actually I am not pointing at PDF, it was hosted at youtube.
So where else could it be?
In servers?
I was just suggesting having a look!

Don't you have a decent antivirus installed in your system?

Then first step you should take is to install an anti-virus.

Try Avira and avast. Both are free and both work great when installed together on the same system.

Your virus has nothing to do with PDF, as it doesnt host anything that can be infected, nor we ask users to download anything.
