The growing popularity of online video has caught the attention of malicious hackers and hi-tech criminals.

While websites like YouTube make it easy to watch video online, many of the downloadable clips posted on the web require extra software, called a codec, to play them. Some of the codecs let users play types of net-based video, but also have spyware and adware wrapped inside.

Security firms were now logging instances in which spyware and adware firms are turning out software bundles that claim to roll together many popular codecs or just have the one needed to play a particular clip. Some of the codecs do help to play clips, but others are disguised as a variety of nuisance or malicious programs.

Be careful while installing a codec from unknown website.
