- adarkmethod, on 08/09/2008, -2/+358haha, looks like their host already got wind and dropped them like a ton of bricks
- s0merand0mdude, on 08/09/2008, -5/+223Did they think this would not be put on Digg somehow? Idiots.
- inactive, on 08/09/2008, -2/+218They'll be destroyed within a day, possibly hours.
- duckyinc, on 08/09/2008, -0/+146Yea, stupid idea. The whole point of malware is to hide under legit sites, posting it on iwantvirus.com isn't going to work
- positron, on 08/09/2008, -0/+138They're gone.
- asspants, on 08/09/2008, -2/+127as a person who makes a living removing malware, i endorse this site. please tell your friends and family to go there, it's just like limewire, but better.
- inactive, on 08/09/2008, -1/+125MPAA is backing this for sure
- Senious, on 08/09/2008, -3/+90Another cheap threat that well never come to fruition....
- omgsideburns, on 08/09/2008, -1/+80RIAA? MPAA?
- Justin6512, on 08/09/2008, -3/+75INTERNET, BRING THEM DOWN!
- demonicume, on 08/09/2008, -0/+62dick move of the week
- MagicIcarus, on 08/09/2008, -1/+53Nice when user submitted news actually roots out *****!
That's why I look for user comments before downloading. - metaliq, on 08/09/2008, -0/+51Fix!
Don't use their ***** site. - quomen, on 08/09/2008, -8/+57(Another) reason to join a private tracker.
- headzoo, on 08/09/2008, -1/+44Satty removed the forum posts linked to in the article, but Google cache got it:

He doesn't mention the malware thing, so maybe that was something he decided to do later, to make his torrent site unique from the other 10,000 out there. - dwninjungleland, on 08/09/2008, -0/+43Protip: Don't go there.
- inactive, on 08/09/2008, -2/+39If that's the case, then you're malware, because I hate you, too.
- cl2yp71c, on 08/09/2008, -0/+35I just visited that forum and can't help but wonder, WTF is all of this Pay Per Install *****?
Just more adware and spyware for internet n00bs to choke on? - AbdullahAbuDawu, on 09/12/2008, -2/+35TrafficLoader.gov
- Narcowski, on 08/09/2008, -1/+34Was this an attempt at sarcasm?
- kirado4, on 08/09/2008, -3/+35TrafficLoader.com meet the power of the internets.. no stone shall remain unturned!
- NidStyles, on 08/09/2008, -5/+37You're an idiot.
- mrm3x1can, on 08/09/2008, -0/+32lol, it has like 10 Batman Dark Knight dvd rips
- mCanada, on 08/09/2008, -2/+31"This Account Has Been Suspended" haha!
- Paranoidmarvin, on 08/09/2008, -0/+24Of course, this is more legal than downloading software, music and videos
- tlo182, on 08/09/2008, -0/+22Am I the only one who immediately had sirens and bells go off in their head at the sight of a web address with a name like "TrafficLoader.com" - the name alone sounds like your prototypical malware infested website. Seriously, pick a less obvious name, idiots.
- SintraKikuta, on 08/09/2008, -1/+22$200? You're getting ripped off :)
- inactive, on 08/09/2008, -2/+17they will be destroyed so quickly
- SugarCoatedSalt, on 08/09/2008, -0/+13Roger that.
- TheGuruStud, on 08/09/2008, -3/+15ROFLMFAO!!!!!!
- DoctorFaust, on 08/09/2008, -1/+11Isn't TrafficLoader the site that redirects you when you're trying to get good porn? I hope they burn in the deepest circle of Hell.
- norm7, on 08/09/2008, -2/+12***** THE RIAA!!!
oh wait - amitbhawani, on 08/09/2008, -1/+10Seems their website is down, good that you have suceeded in your job and helped everyone.
- borninda818, on 08/09/2008, -1/+10Am I the only one who actually checked if that was a real site?
- tokabowla, on 08/09/2008, -1/+10And "bad" torrents will get sniffed out quickly by users and not seeded.
- Thedarklord187, on 08/09/2008, -1/+10To answer your question yes they remove bad torrents on their forum you can actually submit bad torrents that you or others have found. And as far as the removing of other torrents their policy is if its labeled correctly it wont get taken down
- Thedaymusicdied, on 08/10/2008, -1/+9Send out the roflcopters!
- aladrin, on 08/09/2008, -3/+10Does PirateBay remove bad torrents? I've not seen one on there (that I know of) but I've never heard of torrents being removed, either.
- strangewill, on 08/09/2008, -1/+8Well in that case, it needs to be labeled "malware.torrent" to not be removed, which I guess is your own fault if you download them.
- thakur01, on 04/27/2009, -0/+7Yeah because bittorrent is only used for piracy, cut that fcking ***** already. I have had a torrent running in the background for an upcoming MMO for the past couple of days, the developer decided to host the 9.5GB beta client via their own bittorrent tracker.
When will people realise that bittorrent is a legitimate means for distributing large files?
Anyway it looks like trafficloader.com's account has been suspended, didn't they realise that the proliferation of malware/viruses is against a hosting providers terms use? - AzureRise, on 08/10/2008, -0/+6Isn't it illegal to purposely distribute viruses like that? I remember bounties were being offered by companies like Microsoft a while back.
- bincoder, on 08/09/2008, -0/+6Upload malware that scans and deletes other malware on the users system?
Oops! too late, another one bites the dust! - arjie, on 08/09/2008, -0/+6per lot, dude. Botnet slices are sold at pretty high prices too. The Storm botnet had bits of it sold, reportedly.
- InfiniteNothing, on 08/09/2008, -0/+6Personally, I've always thought piratebay's "correctly labeled" policy was the best compromise. If it's labeled Blaster Virus or whatever, why not post it. Maybe someone wants to study it on their virtual computer or something.
- HoldenH, on 08/10/2008, -0/+5I can invite to What.cd
- Persian5Life, on 08/10/2008, -0/+5i want to join and i am ALWAYS willing to seed but they are always full on me :(.
- thevoiceless, on 08/09/2008, -0/+5You guys really need to stop acting like it's your own little club; If you know anything about p2p you know about usenet.
Get over it. - mrsteveman1, on 08/09/2008, -1/+6yea.....i'm not even sure you're serious, but oh well.
It's not about tools, its about flawed architecture. Take for instance, the fact that in XP services all seem to run in the same address space in memory, or that they can interact with whatever they want. At least Unix separates daemons into their own memory space. - jaythewise, on 08/09/2008, -0/+4Its odd on the forum they go on to rationalize the spyware crap they are installing on moron's PCs by stating torrent sites are full of thiefs and whatnot. Weird what someone can tell themselves so they do not feel like they are scum.
- Chainheart, on 08/09/2008, -0/+4A true ***** will politicize at every opportunity, and this is well supported by all of your comments as well
