Just wanted to give my honest opinion. I've used this site for what seems like forever and haven't had any problems so far, which is why I'm surprised to read about other people's experiences. Bear in mind surfthechannel has no original content so you're always redirected to another site in order to watch the video you choose (e.g. an episode of dexter hosted on megavideo). It's one of the few 'free-TV-show' sites that I haven't had a problem with popups etc. I'd guess the problems probably come from people posting false links directing users to dangerous sites. This hasn't happened to me but if you are going to use the site maybe it's a good idea to get acquainted with someone who posts your favourite show regularly - so just keep clicking on THEIR links rather than just clicking on random posters. Hope that helps.

Damn ads! Some of them are scams to get your money. Also, malicious content.

Good site that redirects to streaming, much like alluc. Nothing wrong here; you need to check the individual WOT ratings for the redirects, as it is the linked streaming sites that could pose security problems, and not StC itself. Some content isn't appropriate for children. It's all about what you search for. Contains hateful, violent, and sexual material as provided by the StC community.

They provide a good service but their advertisements often have trojans. I dont use them anymore since I have been infected from them alot!

I used to frequent this site and I'm pretty sure it is one of the places that gave my old computer a lot of trouble. Site is flagged by antivirus software + browsers warn of the site's unsafeness.

Site contains scripts from xtendmedia.com; a site engaged in the distribution of malware. If you must use this site, I highly recommend disabling JavaScript or using the NoScript addon.

I used to go on this site daily. Recently though, my antivirus tells me there is a virus/worm whenever I visit. Don't know about you guys, but I'm not taking chances.

Google told me they detected 28 trojans

This site has spam bombs that often link to viruses. Sometimes, even with high security, the spam bombs will entirely shut down your internet

Links to episodes, films etc.
