possible malware warning

[moosemother12]

I'm assuming this is monitored, because I am not at all certain that what I have to say is, in fact, accurate. I'm enough of an old luddite to be completely mistaken, and if that is the case, please delete this comment. So here goes...

When I click on any of the links and go to Boris's site for the famous ENB, I'm pretty sure I'm inundated with suggestions to download all sorts of things including the Babylon tool bar. Although I came to computing late, I'm not a complete ignoramous. It might be that i could actually download the core ENB if I were more computer literate. At the age of 62, I came into fun computers late (the first computer I ever met was a mainframe with Unix), and so have only recently learned to use a computer for fun. I'm not, however, completely illiterate.

All that said, I really believe there should be some sort of caveat emptor required before modders blythely direct users to Boris. I'm pretty sure I know why he doesn't want to let his core files be placed on any other website, and I don't think it's just a matter of copyright,

Not really sure which url you talking about, but if you throw the link in here: http://www.urlvoid.com you'll get a report of whether it's clean or not.

 

https://www.virustotal.com/en-gb/#url is also good for checking site safety.

Never encountered a problem on enbdev, might be just because of adblockers.

 

The Babylon toolbar exists for the sole reason of pumping advertisements in your face and it can be a pain to be rid of.

 

Anyway, you should probably be making Boris aware of this by posting on his personal forums.
