iWin Games- Viruses?

Posted: July 7, 2008 at 11:13

Is iWin Games Safe to download from? They have so many of my favorite games unlimited with ads but I'm afraid my computer will get a virus. I downloaded from them again and then my computer got a virus, but i don't know if it was their fault.

Has anyone ever gotten a virus from them?

I've gotten viruses from I-Win also and will not download anything else from them.

Just another small country heard from.

I too have gotten viruses from Iwin.com. I read that it had happened to people on this forum, but I thought that maybe they were mistaken and had gotten them elsewhere. Sure enough, right away I started having problems. It's not worth the hassle to get anything from there.

No one's critizicing or harassing you. You're posting on a public forum, remember? You posted an opi

yup, twice and adware - not a safe site. I love how they say 100% guaranteed no adware/spyware......my foot.

I absolutely refuse to take the chance. Why mess us a perfectly great computer? I have Norton 360 with all the extras and I still won't take the chance of going there. Deleted them completely off my computer including a game I had from them after hearing all the negative info coming from victims that had downloaded there. No offense intended to anyone who chooses to use that site... after all, it's a free country, lol!

I don't want to stir up a hornets nest, but this what I found on SiteAdvisor.com, http://www.siteadvisor.com/sites/iwin.com< br />
It's gotten a Yellow caution rating with McAfee at the moment. Also, my anti-spyware software has that site marked as a potential nasty. So, I'd err on the side of caution and steer clear of them.
