rootkit? seriously this crap is gone lot of years lol, do you have antivirus software? such crap wouldn't ever get around this, I don't even have AV software anymore, firewall is all what is needed for safety if you follow some basic internet/download rules.
And why would anyone that have access to your computer try to send you "community patch 1.70" ? I guess it was simply packaged with some´thing you ve downloaded - try to redownload these packages and check this - I as a CP founder never heard that its included in anything, namely doubt it would be in NWN complete (too bad rep for that), but that doesn't mean that it isn't there. Some peoples just don't give a sh*t about those who spared months of improving this game and redistributes content in there on their own.
So, if you already made more than one scan don't bother reinstalling anything, you should be safe.
You utterly miss the point Shadoooooow. And more, you are as wrong as wrong gets.
What miscreants do they do, it is not a reflection on you or your software. There is nothing in this world to prevent miscreants from doing just as outlined on the users system. To NOT council them that it is a possibility would be foolish.
Antivirus softwares are NOT all the same, some are utter garbage some even little more than a scam. Why you rush in to defend AV software without making distinction between the good and the garbage is utterly beyond logic and my comprehension.
Why do hackers do bad things? Go ask them. But take it as read that they do these things. If you are unaware of such things, go educate yourself on the matter.
Frankly "such crap" WOULD get around this and often does. That you don't use AV software at all demonstrates your lack of understanding in these matters. By all means do risk your system, but note, I'll never look at one of your downloads as I feel in light of your comment that such would be my own folly.
Go re-read the OP. It states clearly the software appeared at a time when NO ONE WAS ON HIS COMPUTER. Once you've digested that fact, you'll see that the rest of your assumptions are - completely out there. Note that the OP examined your uploaded file and that on his desktop and NOTED DIFFERENCES. Now, what part of that tells you 'it is all ok?'
One final note, stop taking any comment about patch1.70 as a personal insult. We are talking here about security NOT any aspect of your own software. For all intents and purposes, this file we are specifically talking about seems to have walked in under its own accord. This is utterly NOT RIGHT and needs to be dealt with carefully, with the right tools and the right POV.
Be well. Game ON.
