Not heard of any malware from them. But linkbait, lots of misleading linkbait. E.g. the Feb 2015 link: "Sony Xperia Z4 UK release date" Unambiguous right? They have the release date for the z4! No they don't. Follow the link and the article says there is no release date for the z4. That's how they make their money... clearly not trustworthy.

Matt Egan doesn't know a byte from a bit. Oh dear: http://www.pcadvisor.co.uk/reviews/network-wifi/3420596/sky-hub-sr101-broadband-router-review/ "It operates with a 230V AC 50HZ mains supply" How useful to know, that a UK electrical appliance uses EXACTLY THE SAME AS EVERY OTHER. We weren't expecting that... "We compared the Sky Hub SR101 with its predecessor, in our 1950s brick-built house using an up to 20Mbps connection" Note that figure: When we had installed the Sky Hub SR101 the Series 7 enjoyed download speeds of 2.73Mbps and uploads of 0.67Mbps. The Nexus 7 was 2.9Mbps and 0.93Mbps, and the iPhone 5 2.45Mbps and 0.65Mbps." So, they give meaningless figures. One router versus another will max out at 54Mbps or 150Mbps or whatever standard it supports. When testing it you're measuring versus these speeds, and versus each router model. How is a pathetic 2.5Mbps going to be a test of the above 54 and 150 figures? These fools were testing an ostensible 'up to 20Mbps' Sky Broadband connection. Found it was doing just over ONE TENTH of the quoted speed, and instead of slagging Sky's pathetic broadband speeds (or the bad BT line), they mumble-on through their worthless review. Sorry for the personal flavour to this post, but I can't get a job without half killing myself but how are these jokers employed when (many others and) I can do better and more technical than this review - EVEN AFTER I'VE HAD FIVE JOINTS TO SMOKE. Thus, don't trust this site - they have been shown at least one one occasion to insult their readers' intelligence. Whilst the author chastises someone for (correctly?) accuse him of being mentally-ill for over-positively-describing the lights on the router as being 'less bad' rather than calling them an annoyance as everyone else finds them. I bet this guy's a graduate, too... sheesh.
