Ist fonts101.com sicher?

Site was OK before, but on ***** download installed WSE_Astromenda malware: Took over FireFox/MyYahoo home page and added 4 other programs. Disabled my excellent Internet Security program! Took major anti-malware program to fully remove from Registry! Lost 2 days. Avoid!!!

This site installs PUP and/or malware! Beware and don't install ANY fonts you download from this site. You can say DECLINE and NO to ALL of their options and STILL get a PUP or MLAWARE installed. You have been warned, stay away! As far as legal issues, this site distributes fonts illegally!

They steal fonts from hard-working font designers who are trying to make few dollars from their creations. Fonts101 takes those copyrighted fonts and gives them away for free, just so fonts101 can make money from their ads. Often they even delete the copyright information and claim the fonts as their own! They ignore any request to remove the illegally posted fonts.

I started to download a font but it came bundled with three different search bars and other scan tools that I could not choose to NOT install, so I canceled the download. The unwanted programs installed ANYWAY, and I spent much time removing them and all their parts. I think I still have some things infecting me, and it's going to cost me more time to get back to where I started. Don't use this site!

It gives malware when you download the fonts. First it comes with a Webdownloader for just downloading 25 Kb ? Then it installs a Malware, in my case it was IncrediBar, a toolbar which taking over Google and all search modules for all browsers. Same in French : Le site donne un malware lorsqu'on appuie sur "Download fonts". D'abord, il nous présente un WebDownloader pour juste télécharger 25 Ko ? Ensuite, il installe un malware, dans mon cas c'était IncrediBar, une barre d'outils incrusté partout et dans tous les navigateurs.

Pure junk as when you install your fonts it also installs the junk tool bars and overtakes all your browser configurations. Even when you opt out of installing the toolbars. Avoid at all costs. Also this has confirmed the reason why I hate windows as random crap can install itself and overtake your p.c.'s settings.

Be careful what you download from this site. Got a keylogger on one of their "font installer" packages. Seemed suspicious that I couldn't download a font directly, but I didn't think anything more of it. Suddenly, weird charges show up on our credit card from iTunes. Out of curiousity, I ran Malwarebytes Anti-Malware and it picked up a couple of viruses on the installer file. Related? A slight chance. But I wouldn't trust this website again.

***** is a really good place to get tons of fonts. When you download each font, do a custom install, instead of the default. By selecting the custom installation radio bution, you can uncheck Startnow Toolbar, Startnow Homepage and Bing default search. I always perform a security scan of all of the fonts downloaded, via ZoneAlarm Extreme Security Suite (new version). I do not trust any website completely. My advice is to proceed with caution on all unfamiliar websites.
