Download disasters to look out for

January 16, 2006 in Security | Permalink

The nice people at SiteAdvisor have trawled the web in search of bad downloads, in the hope that it will stop us from doing the same. After visiting over a million websites and completing over 140, 000 download tests, they’ve published a handy list of the worst offenders for our important attention. Downloads are given their own “nuisance rating” which lets you know how far a download will go in messing up your computer. Very useful indeed.
