Safe, original and up-to-date versions of the plugins can all be found on this site, via the plug-in index. If you had it before that's probably why you needed your computer repaired - there is no safe 'megalo' pack! It is only safe to download plugins from this site or sites linked to by the plugin's author. The 'megalo' pack is a collection of stolen plugins and contains malware. There's no telling what that plugin pack had lurking in it. You should also run a full antivirus scan. Whether or not it is virus infected, you still need to delete the plugins and download the most recent versions from here. That plugin pack is an unauthorized compilation of (probably outdated versions of) plugins from this forum. ONLY download effects from this web site.

And, they're redistributing all of those plugins without permission from the plugin authors. There be dragons there.Īnd by dragons I mean you'll probably get a virus. Here's a little sampling of what our esteemed forum users have had to say about the Megalo pack.īad idea. NEVER install a plugin from anywhere else. If you want plugins - get them from this forum or from links posted here by the plugin author. Then SCAN, CLEAN and SCAN again using the latest virus scanner you can lay your hands on. You should remove ALL traces of the download and ALL the plugins it installed. If you have installed this nasty bit of slime, please DO consider your PC infected. That is the motivation these thieves have for creating this abomination. That's right, you get the EVOGEN virus absolutely free with all those outdated plugins. You see, the accursed Megalo pack illegally bundles and redistributes plugins without permission. I know it sounds great to get all* the plugins in one go. We've had yet another instance of well-meaning users downloading and installing the 'Megalo' plugin pack.

Just read EER`s thread on the main forum about the Megalo plug in virus and thought it would be a good idea to copy it across to Fans as well.
