Correction IM, don't get MalwareBytes from Cnet, they do their own browser hijacking. Get it from ninite.com

OH, I didn't know that. I always thought CNET was on the up and up.

Sorry.

What does CNET actually do, or what is it that CNET does that ninite does not?

cnet usually bundles some shit you don't want with what you are actually after. ninite specifically does NOT do that. plus, you can get several things at once, and the updates are just a matter of re-running the instal file.

highly recommended.

CNET used to be good. But then their evil twin showed up and duct taped their mouth shut and threw them in the back of a van so they could take over. Now they load you up with malware.

It's sad, really.

He's saying that it's BS that the RIAA can hire an investigator to download a song the same way a pirate would and have that be proof that there is copyright infringement. The RIAA asked the investigator to download the songs, which means the investigator has been authorized to do it. Therefore it can't be infringement.
