Answer» Quote from: hannibal_lecter on August 26, 2009, 06:15:23 AM i see. Thank you. about "file sharing" sites; I'll flesh it out some more a File sharing site would be something like fileplanet, rapidshare, etc, where any user can upload (share) files with others. Filehippo, and many other sites (snapfiles, cnet download, etc) are managed by the editors (that is, moderated) In many cases they wouldn't need to run a malware scan- they have a LOT of prerequisites- a company site, for example. And of course they look at said site and can recognize software that might be malicious/questionable (scam software company sites are INSTANTLY recognizable with a little practice) the aforementioned "file sharing" type site (again, fileplanet, rapidshare, etc) may or may not perform scans of uploaded files- but it really doesn't matter- these are anonymous people posting anonymous content, and anonymity is a trait that one should only trust with extreme caution.

Thank you everyone who has replied my questions. Thank you very much for your time and advices. It's totally helpful. And i appreciate it.This >>FileHippo<< is not and has never been a file sharing site. They host only the best of the best freeware (some subscriptions). I even use them as a mirror for the downloads in my Malware Removal Guide WOT scorecard - http://www.mywot.com/en/scorecard/filehippo.com <- All green. It's been widely speculated but never actually confirmed that Piriform (CCleaner) also owns FileHippo. Or vice versa. Just for fun, see the similarities. Whois, FileHippo http://whois.domaintools.com/filehippo.com Whois, Piriform http://whois.domaintools.com/piriform.com But, the rule of thumb when downloading security software (or any for that matter) is to ALWAYS use the software developers website. That is unless you are unsure of what the website is because there are rouge websites set up to look like the official one and you will get ripped off not being VIGILANT. Never go to a site to download anything from an advertisement. I have a bunch of safe software and download websites listed on my blog if you ever need to find a software download. Trusted security tools & resources When in doubt, these are the cleanest download sites I have found to date. Notice Download.com isn't listed. http://filehippo.com/ http://www.majorgeeks.com/ http://fileforum.betanews.com/ i downloaded this firefox from filehippo and mcafee site advisior says it safe and it havent seen any problems with iti use filehippo.com all the time it is a moderated site and have never had a problem with any of the files i have downloaded from that site Quote from: evilfantasy on August 26, 2009, 07:39:09 PM This >>FileHippo<< is not and has never been a file sharing site.
