I get this warning some times but not every time as well.

It happens every so often to me as well when downloading stuff from mediafire. My antivirus (nod32) prevents a popup windows of my browser from loading, and I get an alert. But this doesn't prevent the regular download from being downloaded, and I've never had any annoyance other than having to close manually the blocked window.

This has happened to me a couple of times and is no fun at all to get rid of. I couldn't even use Microsoft Security Essential to get rid of it. Not even using Add/Remove in your Control Panel will get rid of it. The only way to get rid of it is to do a System Restore to an previous date. Then run your antivirus software to get it all out.

so this is where that window is redirecting?
I am sorry guys. Since many subsim members are using medifire for hosting their files, I was thinking that it was a reliable site. Do you know any good alternative to it, that allows for free memberships without removing temporarily inactive downloads?
