hey guys i'm wondering if I got a virus or something through this website. It asked me to download this binary file and nothing happened. Where do i go to get rid of where this file installed itself?

By the way, the file you downloaded is a codec file, which can't install on your Mac unless you actively install it and enter your administrator password. Look in your Downloads folder and move it to the Trash.
