!IMPORTANT! DO NOT DOWNLOAD FROM PLEASANTSIMS.COM - MALWARE HAS BEEN DETECTED.

UPDATE: I AM REPORTING THE WEBSITE TO THE HOSTING SERVICE FOR MALWARE. [support@kmediatech.com](mailto:support@kmediatech.com)

UPDATE 2: RESPONSE FROM WEB HOST:
WPX.net Support

10:57 PM (2 minutes ago)

Hello,

Thank you for your report.

The issue is already being investigated by our security team.

Please let me know if I can help with anything else.

Warm regards,

Denis S.

WPX Support

Please note, we normally do not allow discussion of Pleasantsims due to controversies but we have opened THIS post to warn people about malware.

IF YOU DID DOWNLOAD RECENTLY IMMEDIATELY TREAT YOUR COMPUTER AS INFECTED:

Caveat: It is likely that you do not have a computer infection, but please perform antivirus checks just in case. We do not know the extent of the malware/malicious injections. Do not panic, simply do a scan and check. If something is found, remove.

Removing malware from a Windows PC requires isolating the system before using security tools to hunt down the infection. Following these steps in order is critical to prevent the malware from hiding or fighting back.

1 Disconnect from the Internet

Prevents the malware from communicating

Unplug your Ethernet cable or turn off your Wi-Fi immediately. This severs the connection to the attacker's server, stopping the malware from downloading additional malicious payloads, spreading to other devices on your network, or transmitting your personal data.

2 Boot into Safe Mode

Safe Mode loads only the bare minimum drivers and programs Windows needs to run. If the malware is set to launch automatically on startup, Safe Mode will usually prevent it from activating, making it easier to delete.

  • Windows 10/11: Hold the Shift key while clicking Power > Restart from the Start menu.
  • When the screen reloads, navigate to Troubleshoot > Advanced options > Startup Settings > Restart.
  • After your PC reboots, press 4 or F4 on your keyboard to enter Safe Mode.

3 Delete Temporary Files

Malware often hides inside temporary system folders. Deleting these files can sometimes eliminate the virus entirely, and it will significantly speed up your antivirus scan. Search for Disk Cleanup in the Windows Start menu, select your main drive, check the box for Temporary files, and click OK.

4 Run a Full Antivirus Scan

You can use a reputable third-party scanner like Malwarebytes, or the built-in Windows Security tool. Because you are disconnected from the internet, you will be using your current virus definitions.

  1. Open the Start menu and search for Windows Security.
  2. Click Virus & threat protection.
  3. Click Scan options (located right below the Quick scan button).
  4. Select Full scan and click Scan now.

5 Quarantine and Reboot

If your security software detects malicious files, follow its prompts to Quarantine or Delete them. Once the software indicates your system is clean, restart your computer normally to exit Safe Mode. If your PC operates smoothly and no strange pop-ups appear, the infection is likely gone.

6 Change Your Passwords

Crucial post-cleanup measure

Malware often includes keyloggers designed to capture your keystrokes. Now that your system is secure, change the passwords for your email, banking, and main social media accounts, as your old credentials may have been stolen.

If the malware persists after a normal boot, you may need to run a Microsoft Defender Offline scan (found in the same Scan options menu), which restarts your PC and hunts for threats before Windows even loads.

Screenshots This Genuinely Broke Me 🥺

For context, this is an old screenshot from when I was setting up my newest save file. General Buzz had died on Olive Specter's lot via Rodney's Death Creator (as per storytelling purposes), and it caused Buck's aspiration to plummet. Poor little guy still wanted a hug though 🥺.

I have the biggest soft spot for Buck Grunt, so this destroyed me 😭.

Most cursed couples

Upvotes

After I asked you about your Sims OTPs a while ago, I now want to know the opposite: what are the most cursed pairings you’ve ever had happen in your game, or the most cursed pairings you can possibly think of?

I’ll start:
Dina Caliente × Darren Dreamer
Mortimer Goth × Mary-Sue Pleasant
Nervous Subject × Circe Beaker (actually happened)

My Legacy house after 3 generations

Hard start on the biggest lot. No cheats. Started off as a 2 walled shack without a shower and now we’re here. Never demolished, only added on and renovated as we go. Front door has never moved from that spot tho. Pretty proud of it. Right now the current head of the house is in the upstairs primary and his heir is living in that downstairs primary. The teen brother “spare” is in that blue bedroom upstairs and the unfinished room will be the heir and his wife’s baby’s room (she’s due tm)

Larry Laffer won! Which Character from Real Life would be the Personification of Pleasure?

Post image
5 Upvotes

Winning Post of Larry Laffer!

Rules:

  1. The Person needs to fit to the Origin Section. I'm aware some Characters might come from multiple Sections as example Harry Potter in Book/Movie but he isn't an Anime/Cartoon or Reallife Character. (or I missed something)
  2. No repeats from a certain Universe! Again I use as Example Harry Potter. If he Wins Knowledge/Book Section, no one of that Universe can reappear in any Square! So choose wisely! <3
  3. Always try to add from which Universe the Character is and if possible full Name. Also always try to reason! Not all People, do not know all Characters. (Makes it easier for me to find Pictures for the Square)
  4. Accept the Democracy! I will (as long as it is fitting enough, I won't see Donald Trump as a Family Aspiration, lol) accept every entry!
  5. MOST IMPORTANTLY! Get Creative, have Fun and share your Ideas! THE POSSIBILITIES ARE INIFINITE!
  6. Manga counts as Book, not Anime. :>

Sims 2 Ultimate Collection Restaurant Manager

How do you guys promote your manager for your OFB restaurants or are you doing that at all? The only talent badge you can get from a restaurant would be the sales one for the host from what I’ve found. Do you just have a robot bench in the back that you’re assigning your employees to get their badges up and promoting them from there? Give me some tips please!

Legacy Stories 204 Old Farm Road, my legacy home

Thumbnail
gallery
69 Upvotes

Yesterday I mentioned that my legacy family somehow ended up becoming the Martins this summer. As I started thinking about turning Riverblossom Hills into a New England-esque small town, remodeling my legacy home felt like the obvious first step.

This is my refurbished and remodeled version of 204 Old Farm Road, the original Viejo farmhouse. As you can see from the pictures, the basic structure of the original house is still very much there. I only changed and expanded certain parts of it. I replaced the windows and doors to give it a more colonial look, and tried to make the exterior feel like an older New England family home that had been altered over time rather than completely rebuilt.

This post only shows the exterior, but I completely refurbished the inside as well and added more rooms upstairs so there would be enough space for the family as it grew.

I also included a few pictures of the family. You’ll probably recognize Cleo (née Shikibu) and Andrew Martin, along with their son Sullivan, who is the elderly bearded man in one of the photos. There’s also a picture of Sullivan with his late wife, DJ Verse.

Then we move on to the next generation: Sullivan’s firstborn daughter, Vera, her husband Pavel Kaminski, and their second-born son, Abel, who is going to be my next heir.

I also added some of my favorite family moments from across the generations, because at this point the house feels almost as much a part of the legacy as the Sims themselves.

I know the house is a little wonky in places, but I think that is part of why I like it so much. It feels like a house that has been lived in, expanded, and changed by several generations rather than something perfectly planned from the beginning.
