    :wtf:


    It is not about Pro Tools. :deep_facepalm: You should have read the article before creating this thread. It is about the Avid MEdia Composer. I certainly am LMAO at your title. And so is every ProTools user :rofl: On top of that, there is nothing funny about a widespread malware or virus infection affecting every user. It is really dumb to be laughing at that, like it is a fucking joke. Remember, one day it could happen to you.

    EDiT : it's not Avid's fault, it's google chrome updater.

    And if you would have read more about this problem, you would have learned that this isn't a problem of Avid at all. The reason is a Google Chrome update, that is deleting an important symlink, deep in the OSX. So if you want to laugh, laugh about Goggle. Btw there is a solution from Google to resolve this issue. Its no malware!!

    Sorry about the title, i read first time on the Reaper forum one thread about Avid and iLock with presumtion to have malware.
    The guy provided that link. No intention to offend the Avid lovers. :mates:

    Apologies accepted on behalf of Pro Tools Lovers Club. With that said, I must admit that when I first read your original title I almost crap in my pants.:rofl: It is always a good idea to double-check any story you hear or find on the internet., especially on Forums. Here we joke about Cubase 10Pro unlocked. Imagine if a visitor read it, and then went to another forum stating that there is a Cubase 10 pro unlocked.
