Another problematic blog: portablesoft4you

#1 Post by webfork »

I don't really want to play the part of blog police, but I came across a portable website and checked just one of the entries:

https://portablesoft4you. [proceed with caution] blogspot.com/2011/03/regseeker-is-perfect-companion-for-your.html#more

The version of RegSeeker they're distributing isn't in the VirusTotal database, neither the RAR file nor "RegSeeker.exe" file it contains. As there's no reason to modify the original freeware program, I'd avoid this place.

Also, going through the download sequence is pop-up city, which somehow got around Firefox popup blockers.
