      <![CDATA[<p>This was a FAKE WAREZ site. There are some great generous people who will give you programs, they paid money for, for free, but there are some who will pretend to be one of them in order to get a virus on your PC.<br />
First, you should use a warez site, you can trust, which hasn't given you any trouble before, preferable Russian.</p>

<p>Second, you must research what you are looking for and you must learn what exactly and which version of it you are looking for.</p>

<p>Third, you must stay out of computer-generated text and always look for a picture of a game and some info about it on the site, so you know it is giving you exacly what you want.</p>]]>

      <![CDATA[<p>I am sure that you will most likely delete this but i don't really care,In my 15 years of software coding,driver coding and viruis removel on the profressional level i have to somewhat, not totally but to a high degree. And to those who are looking for sites that are safe,then goodluck to you and they are easy enough to find.<br />
First research the software so you know how big your download should be within a few kbs give or take depending on the tool used to compress the file.stay away from CRACKERS and please do not asume that a hacker is the same as a cracker, hackers are highly intellignet people who's only purpose is learn new things or to tear a program in pieces to see what it tick or to improve it.Crackers are punks who most times are menvolent and sneaky.<br />
As with everyone leo you are entitled to your opinion.While there are some people who do indeed pack trojons and virius's into some warez downloads(CRACKERS FOR THE MOST PART) ,But to mark all "warez" or sites that offer shareware that has been patched or that you will be provided with the means to register the said download, is in over 75% safe,not to a legal standard which is a whole different thing becuase there are many cases in which EULA AGREEMENT does not expressly state that we can not share this software,In fact u could send everyone on the page a copy of any windows operating system without breaking the law so long as i have not supplied you a product key! Most of us that are offering expensive software to others ARE NOT OUT TO HARM ANYONE!! We do this for the simple pleasure of helping others who may not have the resources to pay for some of these things,eg games like half life 2, the need for speed series,ect. And if you look at the NFO file from some of the top groups like Paradox.Vitality,Razor1911..They express the same thing, we are ofering you a chance to review the software without limitation and that if you are pleased with it then please BUY a legit copy because they programmers derserve it! next you wanna bash a comunity go bash the porn sites because that is where 90% of the trojans,virues,web spiders and browser hijacks come from!</p>]]>

      <![CDATA[<p>I had an experience with one of these sites a couple of years ago.<br />
I was looking for a utility to help me with a password problem. I never actuall yfound any thing but in the process of trawling the site I fould that IE got hijacked and I had a large number of rubbish windows opened and spurious entries in my Favorites. I got stuck with a lot of site variants of the 'lop' variety. It took me some whil to clear tham all out. I had to go off line and spend about half an hour deleting things and then running antiviral and malware clean up utilities to get back to normal.<br />
Definitely don't touch these sites !</p>]]>
