Naughty R2R/CracksNow (Rule Update)

Updates to the Do Not Upload List:


Releases From R2R: Ableton.Live.Suite.v10.0.*.Incl.Patched.and.Keygen-R2R's Keygen contains a crypto miner. The same keygen is packaged across all releases of Ableton 10 from R2R. Similar things are present in other R2R releases.
Releases from CracksNow: Confirmed to be apps containing ransomware.


Security of users at Redacted is and always will be the number one priority. As of this announcement, any uploads from R2R and CracksNow are specifically banned. Why? Specifically mentioning Ableton releases as noted above, R2R releases contain a slew of crypto miners/bloatware that pings unfamiliar IP addresses. CracksNow releases are infested with ransomware. Please stay far, far away from these releases.

If ever in doubt, run the questionable software inside a sandbox or Virtual Machine which is isolated from your main operating system. Additionally, consider installing anti-virus software to keep your computer safe.

As explained above, cracked applications can be very dangerous if contents are not explored before-hand. As a moderation team, we strive to remove infested applications and/or associated files immediately, but users have always been able to make the process faster and bring troublesome issues to our attention.
