Fake FortiClient Installing Itself on my System?
So this started happening to me about two weeks ago. I never downloaded any Fortinet products before and all of sudden I see FortiClient on my desktop. Nobody else has access to my computer and I don't go poking around suspicious emails or files I don't know about.
I went ahead and uninstalled it through the control panel. The next day it appeared again. Uninstalled again, a few days later it came back. Apparently, it doesn't seem to want to stay away. It also installed a dial up VPN that I promptly deleted.
I'm not sure what's going on. I already have an antivirus program called Sophos and it doesn't detect any problems with the FortiClient program files. So I'm not sure what is really happening with everything, I can't remove the program and keep it off my system.
