I'm fairly new to all of this modding stuff, so I have very little knowledge on how it all works. I'm just wondering if re-texturing an item from the game is as simple as dragging and dropping an image file into a specific place (as you do for some other games), or is it much more complicated than that? I'd like to start making some things, and figure this would be a great way to start.

So is the fact that is brings up a specific threat just bug or something? I get really paranoid when I see things like that appear on my screen. I'm overprotective of my computer, and things like that seem awfully suspicious (no pun intended).

But why does it pop up in the first place? I did some brief research on it (as I'm getting it too), and from what I can gather, this 'Suspicious.Cloud.9' is quite a harmful virus. Surely there must be a reason for that specific threat to be found by everyone.
