and on the Miomap_v3-autovelox_updater-v3[1].3.rar as well. See screenshot.

I have Pest patrol on my PC which found it.

Its probably a harmless Trojan but the fact that it is there is an imposition but typical of most download sites like that as a way for them to generate marketing info and revenue. Or they just have a flaw in their security.....
