Re: Cnet tells users 100% guarantee infection
I considered the OP topic amusing, as I used to use the CNET downloads to verify new malware, they allowed on their site. Nothing much has changed, it's still malware hell; I suggest they lock their site up and throw away the key. |

said by Smokey Bear  :said by DarkSithPro :cnet.com Under lock and key No matter how savvy of a computer user you are, your computer will be the victim of malware or a virus at some point. Pretty bold statement from cnet. What do you guys think? As long people don't download malware from CNET/download.com servers there is a possibilty they remain clean. CNET still offer malware for download..... Edited: typo Agreed!
Why people use these 3rd party download offers is beyond me.
I always go to authers site or company's site and if the 3rd party links are affiliated with them I use them, but, only if on the auther/company's site. |
