I do not know the software myself personally but everyone else is saying you will not get a virus.

In my opinion if you do not completly trust the software you are downloading you have around two options:

1. you do not download it.

2. you download it onto something like a removable disc and then virus scan it, if it has no viruses put it onto the computer and then install it etc.

Divx is safe, just make sure you download it right off the main site.

divx is common, and generally safe. Just make sure you download it of a trusted source, as the others have said
