    Care to elaborate? I've been using this website for about ten years, and have yet to get any malware from using it.
    "I think that the problem with this video is it is highly derivative of many popular bands within the genre. Although when viewed on its own merits, it does have a deeper groove. However what it has in groove, it lacks in originality. One can't help but be reminded of such bands as Pearl Jam, White Zombie, Suicidal Tendencies and other bands that bear the mantle of so called "Alternative Rock". One is even reminded of Lorie Anderson when she wore curlers. Hehehmhm! This video speaks less to the heart and more to the sphincter. In closing, I think Korn would do well to learn more from -"

    Yeah, we're actually really careful about this stuff because we want to ensure the best experience for our users.

    How did you get a virus from EP? Please mention the file/link and we'll test it/remove it asap.

    Probably a false positive with something. Everything on the main site should be pretty safe - haven't even seen any problems with the community uploads either.

    Or he's using XP and had multiple tabs going, then decided it was EP's fault because that was the only place he was actually downloading from

    I've never gotten a virus from this site. Do you use anti-virus stuff?

    Yeah, it could easily have been from a rogue advert. You don't need to actively download stuff to get a virus. It happened to me once and my ISP disconnected me until I could sort it out as apparently it had hijacked my computer. Ended up doing a clean reinstall of Windows. This was a few years ago though, when I was still running XP. I've since got a new system with Windows 7, which I've never had problems on.
