So without checking the integrity of the files you are proposing, someone could end up downloading a malicious file?

Tried n tested links are good.
A copy and paste from elswhere should never make it as a 'post of the month'
also its in the wrong forum i belive.

To the OP, it would have been nice of you to thank the source for this list.

So, thanks to Neowin.net for providing the list.

Being as Neowin is a large tech site, there should be no malicious files amongst them. There will probably be dead links though.

One of the links was to a Yahoo Geocities site - SiliconValley
I used to use their website back in 99'ish as there was some good / hacked software available there.
Now, anyone could sign up for a Yahoo account under the name of SiliconValley (as it is now dead) and upload a trojan or such as the filename specified by the original poster, and could have infected anyone who decided to click on that link.

Very odd post why bother typeing them all out?. Just goto http://www.filehippo.com/ or http://100-downloads.com/ be a lot easier!.

They weren't typed out by the OP, they were copied and pasted from neowin.net
