Attention!
Well, some of you may be infected with the garry's mod virus, and I found some useful code to delete all of the files that you may be infected with. Even if you don't think you have it, you might as well try it, just in case.
Information about the virus
The "cough" virus has been spreading through Garry's Mod servers, and all people that are infected with the virus who join the server infect others, so chances are that you have the virus. The virus spams your friends list with messages, makes you say *cough* (that's how it got its name) and there are rumors that you may get VAC banned for having this, but that is just a rumor, so I am not completely positive. If you want to see really quick if you have the virus, go in your GarrysMod/garrysmod/downloads folder and check for this .dll file. "engine_win32.dll" if you see this, then you are infected and need to either delete all of the files manually, or follow these instructions to fix it. Here are all the files that you need to delete: "engine_win32.dll", "materials\cooltexture.vtf", "bin\game_shader_generic_engine.dll", "lua\autorun\server\default.lua"
Instructions:
1. Go in notepad, and type in this code.
2. After you paste that in, click "save as..." click save as type "all files"
3. Name it anything, as long as it ends in .bat Ex: "cleanup.bat"
4. Drag the .bat file into your GarrysMod/garrysmod folder.
5. Double-click the file, and let it run.
6. Delete the .bat file if you like, and you should be completely uninfected!
Note: I did not make this code, I found it on the Facepunch website. It worked for me, so I thought I would share it with the community.
