I somehow overlooked my own previous condemnation of this site, which was vindicated again by a download today (26 Jul 2013). Evidently I forgot to register my own rating on the bar charts, at the time of my last rant, three years ago. I successfully downloaded an .MP4 video file. The MP4 ran only so long as to advise that the content couldn't be viewed without first installing a provided codec, in a subfolder "codec\". Now why would a proprietary codec — an executable — be necessary? I did a hex edit and found the executable looking sweet and benign. It seemed to be an archive utility, which soon made sense. A virus scan detected nothing. Once run, though, the exec created a *second* executable. Nice dodge! I put the brakes on it without removing the process, and scanned again. Microsoft, McAfee, and other sites identified a "low risk" (though the listed effects seemed far more noxious than that suggested) trojan, first identified only two days ago. I didn't bother to hex edit it. It had the smell, the colour, the texture, and the look of BS, so clever guy that I am, I reckoned it was BS. Given the comments about this site, I wonder at the overall good rating it carries. I will blacklist this site entirely, to avoid forgetfully loading any page of it into my browser. Intruders. Bait-and-switchers. Spammers. Pains in the ass. Avoid these douche applicators entirely and save yourself a painful system recovery ordeal. "Word" in Toronto (That'll be $ .02, please!)
