    Default Is it just me or does Megaupload suck now?

    I have used Megaupload for quite awhile now. I really like it because it is fairly simple and easier for free users to download files.

    For about the past month, this site has set off the Google Chrome malware alarms for potential adware on the site. Also, everytime I download a file, a pop up comes up talking about how I should join a lottery. And finally, everytime I get a download from here, I run my malware bytes and it shows crap that megaupload has put on my system.

    Is anyone else having this problem with Megaupload?

    The other thing is from time it downloads a NASTY virus. I got it and it and erased all my exe files. It SUCKED. Took forever to get my stuff back.

    Thats where I caught the virus from which corrupted the CDMA WS key.dat file and sent me through all that hell I went through a couple weeks back. I would rather use rapidshare. And would encourage everyone else to do so.

    That's where I got a virus that screwed up all my exe's as well. Took me a while to redownload all my stuff. 4shared is the place to be.

    I will see if we can't post something to discourage people from Megaupload. 4shared and Rapidshare are decent sites. I will not use Megaupload anymore.

    In the future if I see a file that is uploaded from Megaupload, I will download it on an experimental laptop first and then make sure it is okay then reupload it to one of those two sites. Megaupload sucks butt.
