I recently downloaded merikenstripcodeengine3.2.12 for Windows and ran it to generate a tripcode. Recently my laptop has been running the fan at a high speed at random moments for some reason. I don't know if this was normal or if it's due to that software. Could it be a virus? I don't remember this happening before I ran this software. Anyone have any experience regarding this software? How do I stop it if it is the thing that's messing with everything?
It's not even installed, because I just extracted and ran it.

yes folks, millenials are THIS fucking stupid.

I scanned it with Windows defender. Is there really malware in it?

Put some new thermal paste in that bitch, just did it with my T430 that was hitting 101c under load now never goes above 70c.
>>
If your laptop is equipped with an INTEL processor, download and install Intel XTU tool so you can underfoot the CPU.

I'm sure AMD has something similar.

I just bought it in August. So it's new. Are tripcode generators dangerous?

>underfoot
I meant undervolt. Darn autocorrect. Also, set the Intel integrated graphics to Maximum Power Saving in the Power Options.

this has to be bait
>>
>>58945404
I can't speak for what you downloaded, virus or not overheating is a sign of poor thermal design, busted fan, or poor thermal paste application.
>>
>>58945436
I'm not baiting. I'm scared now tell me something of worth.

>>58945442
It hasn't overheated but it's Bern getting warm lately.
>>
>>58945470
Warm is fine, a trip code generator will pin your CPU at 100% utilization so it will pump out the heat. If it is doing it will not running blast the vents with compressed air to clean out any dust.

you ran something directly related to imageboards on your laptop

imageboards are notoriously "fringe" sites

i predict with almost certainty that you now have a bitcoin miner installed on your laptop, generating money for some basement dweller somewhere

Also install a antivirus that is worth a damn, Panda Antivirus is a nice free one.
>>
>>58945514
I shut down my computer after using it. So it's probably okay now right?
They don't start up by themselves do they?

>>58945556
Okay

i use Common Sense 2017 personally, OP should try that one

>>58945579
OP downloaded a random ass file and ran it without thinking twice. I don't think he has the ability to install CS17.
