<![CDATA[Opera extension has virus/malware]]>I'm not sure the proper channel to alert about this, but I just added an extension called 'Flash Video Downloader (FVD)' to be able to save flash videos. Along with it came a virus/malware that tracks any shopping I do as well as cluttering my screen with ads.

Is there a way to mark the extension from your download site to warn others until they can route out whatever this virus thing is. As it is now, it's an unsafe extension.

Being the weekend we may not have anyone official look at this page soon.
