torrent tries to connect to the uploaders site.

Reading waregim calling purchased software "boogers:" priceless.

I guess "goodness" doesn't pay, it comes free from your nose.

If I do need a review on how to keep myself out of trouble, and at the same time, keep some money around for the rainy days, where should I RTFM?

RX: The Win kernel is itself a booger. An encrypted RAT. Nobody I've seen has bee able to fully reverse engineer their telemetry. Only perhaps to intercept the authorization section of it.

But make no mistake about it. It is in theory and in practice no different than Zeus, or whatever some booger Yigor from Minsk can scare up to hustle money.

Look at Adobe. Need i say more?

How did you manage to get this torrent in particular, as it seems to be unseeded? Are you sure it was from this uploader you downloaded from?

I downloaded it from the TPB with the uploader name and the skull

The installer first asks you to visit a feedback site, and the uninstaller does something similar. But all of the them leads to the developer of the program's website, and have nothing to do the uploader's torrent.

I would consider this torrent 100% safe

Is the feedback site the uploaders site? When i installed it went to the uploaders site.

No. It went directly to a website that's owned by the developer of the software.

Like an extension of those "if you like it, buy it!" advocacies?

I actually like that idea, but I'll decide when I'll buy it.
