After getting into the tracker i liked knowing it was there, mostly for softwere piracy as outside of pirate trackers it’s hard as balls to even find something remotely safe up for grabs

Finally had a reason to use it, someone else wanted me to get Lumion Pro 15 on it

there was only one result on TorrentLeech, had several hundreds uploaded, active for 2 years, not banned from the forum

so gave it a go

Windows Defender swollowed the crack and marked it as Hacktool, but that’s normal, I’ve had legit cracks also use the exact same software that was flagged here and it also got flagged there, but overall it was fine

But after allowing it and patching the program, running it resulted in several Trojans being detected and contained by Defender, the PC was JUST set up so I reinstalled Windows just in case since the USB was just besides the desk, just to be sure

…but yeah…first experience with a well known and repsected private tracker…and it would have gotten me burned

am I just unlucky or?
