I exclusively downloaded from the user Bone111 because I knew he had a good reputation on the site with a long standing account. Unfortunately though, one of the movies I downloaded from this user ended up infecting my pc with the Neshta malware which resulted in me having to wipe my PC in its entirety as too many files got infected.

I've noticed recently that they are uploading files that don't contain "BONE" in the file name, leading me to assume that they are uploading files from other people, I assume as part of a team, and hasn't checked everything thoroughly? I don't think this was done with malicious intent, I genuinely believe that this user has been mislead and unknowingly uploaded a malicious file but I can't say for sure.

I knew the risks of torrenting, its just a shame that it happened.

Please be careful.

This has caused too many issues for me so unfortunately I am no longer downloading movies.

To the rest of you, good luck out there and safely sail the high seas!

Update:

For those asking, I have no idea which file it was because I've since wiped everything and didnt take the time to find the exact file because at the time my concern was to flush it out. I'm sorry that this isn't of any help.

I haven't downloaded anything other than torrents this past month and it is absolutely the correct site as I have used it for a long time and have it book marked. I made sure to check this thoroughly before my first time using the site.

I'm sorry this isn't ideal.
