      I'm wondering if I had a fake F.lux update invade my PC. After I installed the update, my screen was so bright white I could not do any work. About the same time, my anti-virus was disabled. Also about the same time, someone stole my debit card number.

      I had to put the PC in the shop.

      I ran Super-Antispyware after I got the PC back. I found an "unwanted program" but can't remember the name. I just wanted it off my PC.

        If you downloaded f.lux from the server at https://justgetflux.com there is no virus or hacked version there and your virus came from another place. We do not ship a version of f.lux that does anything like this.
