If the issue is virii, then why are the admins not checking this before allowing them to be posted? I thought there was some kind of delayed time period between submitting a freebie and actually seeing it on the site: is this not to make sure it's (amoung other things) virus-free? And to that, I see sigs and messages that contain hot links; I gather all those (including my own) are to be scrapped since they might lead to some possible virus? You have products in the MP that occasionally link to the outside world — if, as I assume — those are checked for proper virus protection, then again why not apply the same philosophy to your freestuff?

Seriously, folks, the more one looks at this, the more... uhm... unnecessary it becomes.
