File Hippo Updater Warning
Hi,
Several of you may use the File Hippo Updater program, that tells you when an application has a newer version released.
In general, I strongly recommend this application as many current security threats come through the Applications Layer, rather than through the operating system.
I have recently noticed a problem with recommendations regarding hardware management software, particularly videocards. My advice is NOT to follow the link and try to install the update; but to go to the manufacturer's website and check for yourself.
Remember, File Hippo does not know what model/version/interface you have, so the update may not work. Worse still, it will probably just screw everything up!
Cheers
