[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1614464"] Well, for starters I think its a reddit post, so it's about two steps above a 4chan post. But even assuming it was true, that was eight months ago. If someone uploaded a rogue version of the software, MacUpdate's users would be VERY quick to alert Misha and the team, and MU would subsequently remove the download and suspend the uploader. There is, I think, a huge difference between a site that accidentally gets some adware uploaded to it, and a site like Softonic that relies on this for their business model. [/QUOTE]
