Topic: Site security

I'm new to this site, I only wanted to buy a couple of new games, christ they make it difficult for people like me who aren't exactly computer literate!
But I was wondering, I've never heard of this site before and I'm worried, just how secure is it? How legitimate are their 'program updates', especially as the ones I have normally inform me of an update, according to this site virtually all of them have an update available; surprising as some of them are brand new. How much of a risk is there from virus's, trojans and hackers (scum of the universe!) etc.
Can anyone give me honest advice?

Re: Site security

I just joined this site and I personally think its secure I still need to get use to they're software and site, but they tell you up front what information they will take from you thats if you allowed them to but if you don't feel safe and think you are at risk use Filehippo UpdateChecker a similar program but they're updates are more really essential updates which I think you might want. I think the SiClient is a bit complicated for end users.

I think that this site is secure as I trust giveaway of the day and it came with it. Also my WOT plugin for firefox tells that this website is Fully secure.
Hopw it helps.
