Two common sites Uploaders use here for downloading Apps have recently gone bad in ways not previously seen.
Recently the formerly mostly safe drop.download web site now has a nasty TROJAN (JHox:Serhoxs-A Trojan) as soon as you click on any link for downloading an app there it tries to install this Trojan directly. If you don't have a good Antivirus you will be infected with a Trojan. This is not the sort of situation where you get on drop.download and then get a .exe trying to download when you try to get an apk there. It is a direct attempt to infect your computer with a trojan the second you click on a link here on forum.mobilism.org for drop.download.

Also uploads.to which was formerly also relatively safe now attempts all sorts of popups and at one point in trying to get an app there it will always try to secretly download and install installer.exe on your computer. I can assure you that is not something you want.

Uploaders please avoid these two sites. Downloaders BEWARE. You need a good antivirus to avoid getting infected. As a longtime computer tech I've shifted to using Avast AV lately and find it the best one at this time.

You are welcome. I was trying to get an App from this page today: https://forum.mobilism.org/viewtopic.php?f=438&t=2455270&p=5284944#p5284944 and both sites the Uploader has provided are so full of Malware TROJANS coded into the pages that I can't get the app from either one. It would be greatly appreciated if Uploaders could provide at least one link that doesn't try to INFECT your computer.

You should install Brave browser first, then Malwarebytes, and then thank the devs later.

If you click the correct buttons and still get a trojan, please PM me with the information so I can reply to the email from the filehost. Thanks.
