Descargue programas desde esta pagina y casi me arruinan la notebook. Junto con la descarga se agregaron virus y malware, se me abria el navegador por si solo, se me cerraban los programas que quería utilizar y me aparecia ventanas de publicidad de la nada. Cuando descargas podes destildar ciertos programas que vienen incluidos pero aun destildandolos me ha descargado todo tipo de virus. No es recomendable descargar nada de esta pagina.

Only a fool would download from Softonic. The second you enter the page just straight up tells you how awful it is with a video of a girl talking about Softonic on autoplay. 3/4 of their programs are imitations of other products, like 'Fifa 15 Free Download!" or "Call of Duty free download!", the other 1/4 are their 'Softonic helper program' or 'free virtual christmas tree on your desktop!' (Yes, that is a thing) So let's say you download from their site, well, upon installing you will get the dreaded Softonic Toolbar, adware, and other programs that you didn't even choose to install. If you want to download or publish something legit on their site, I'll advise you not to. Just try mediafire, dropbox, mega, or other sites instead of this one.

Another one of those platforms of various software downloads that (often with malicious partners) change installers to insert all kinds of crap (adware, viruses, rootkits, trojans, ...) and make a profit on the back of original softwares developers (even free programs). IMPORTANT TIP: Always remember to search the programs that you find interesting on a search engine and go directly to the developer's website to download it without risk.
