'We are not responsible for marking files as harmful because anti-virus
software does it.'  As I said, outsourced security is _really stupid_.
(In fairness, I'm not saying scumware.org is stupid.  I'm saying it's
just an otherwise meritorious aggregation site collecting stupidity from
elsewhere.)

I now have 'Malware Check' on http://linuxmafia.com/kb/Web/ linking to a
bestiary of all the main bot-driven moronic places on the Web that
catalog 'potentially malicious Web sites'.  (And yes, I worked through
all of those idiots making sure they're no longer flagging
linuxmafia.com as a 'malware site'.)
