By now you’ve certainly heard of the Erin Andrews peephole video. For many obvious reasons the video’s not going to be available through any legitimate or even semi-legitimate outlet leading many to start searching torrents and going to shady file download sites.

Our advice: don’t. In a not at all surprising turn of events spammers and hackers are capitalizing on the immense interest in the Erin Andrews peephole video and are uploading it themselves to torrents and other sites, bundled with some incredibly nasty stuff. We’re talking the worst kind of malware that uses Trojan installers to put stuff like keyloggers and rogue anti-malware installs (almost everyone I know has come across antivirus 2009 malware that is ridiculously difficult to remove, so this is either that or something similar) on your machine.

So think carefully before going hunting for Erin Andrews peephole video torrents or you might end up with something nasty that’ll eat up serious man hours to remove. Searcher beware.
