Hello

I think I found Gimp to be used for Cybersquatting and adware/virus spread when at one social network on a page they have for "Complete offers and earn Gold" I found this:

*«

This offer forward the user to the URL: *

supposedly for download the Gimp, but when the download started my antivirus detected *Adware: Win32/Hotbar* ---
FILES:
GimpSetup.exe

I already sent a Support Ticket to the developers of the respective social network, but as the link is from an outer domain of that social network I'm contacting you because it can be a major concern to Gimp community and possibly for you to make some investigation about this issue. This will probably to damage Gimp's reputation and also spread virus.

I didn't found any other way for contact you beyond IRC but I don't use IRC, so I will be grateful to know that this message was read.

Regards.
