My little cousin downloaded this. He deleted the history, and now my parents think it was me. I'm kinda mad, but I'm going to ask him about it. I figured something was up, when I read the EXE part. Nothing happened to the computer.

Will this thing do anything to your computer if you do not get rid of it? The computer has no webcam so I'm not worried about that, but I want to know if it can damage the computer. It's pretty old anyways, going on about 8 years, but it'd be bad if anything happened.

I'm not sure, but I think this installer file offers some additional software during the installation. Software that you usually don't want on your machine.

If you are looking for the real Minecraft installer, please go to the official Minecraft web site:
