The VideoLAN Forums

Hi,

I have a website and someone (from cashtrafic.com) talk me about remunerated link for installation of vlc. I have the BIG CONVICTION that it's in fact a spyware or something like this.

Wath's about this kind of website : http://browsxxxx (please don't install anything, remove reference if you want, but i am not sur that the site will display something : http://browsxxxx), do you have any problem with them?

Thanks

The only safe way to download VLC is from : http://www.videolan.org/
These kind of sites are known to not respect GPL license, and/or include spywares...

Ok, thanks, my conviction was right

It's certainly best to trust your gut here. If something seems shady it usually is!
