techworld.com — Users looking for the latest and greatest video software may not just be in danger from media lawyers. Security firm Panda Software last week warned that zCodec, which claims to offer "up to 40 percent better (video) quality", is in fact an adware program that can install Trojans, rootkits and other malicious software.

Do they even have the right to use images from Pulp Fiction, Sin City and Korn?

I downloaded this codec the other week. It was brilliant and way better than xvid and divx and x264 all combined. I've now got full-length DVD-quality movies fitting into only a couple of kilobytes each. Everyone should use it forever and ever.

lmao.You should have tweaked your settings more. I got my entire video collection (about 300 movies) down to 3 bytes! Still DVD quality.

^^ Well don't bother with DivX. When building my DVD movie server I was really excited that instead of the 3.5TB I thought I was going to need to store my collection, I could use DivX and @ 700MB a movie, a single 500GB would work out. Then I actually encoded a few movies with Divx (Blade, Blair Witch project, Cold Mountain, etc) and on my 60" HDTV, the picture looked terrible. Pixelation, fuzzy edges, and strange looking blacks ruined my excitement real quick.
