Short little piracy tut

1. USE FIREFOX AND UBLOCK ORIGIN!!!!


2. To find good sites go thru the r/piracy megathread and fmhy net, these are the best sources for this stuff.


3. Stick to direct downloading especially if you don't have a VPN.


4. Always scan a file before opening, I recommend using malwarebytes while having windows built in AV real-time protection on. (optional if your going thru safe sites but I still recommend)


5. Use a download manager! I use free download manager, if you don't downloads will take super long, like hours instead of minutes.


6. A lot of games will still be detected as malicious by malwarebytes and windows AV, so put your games in a windows AV excluded folder so it doesn't auto delete files. If a detection is something like "game crack" or really basic like "malware.ai" or anything it's most likely a false detection!


I also recommend using a launcher to organize your games you get, I use playnite.


Safe sailing!!

i think i would add the note that you dont really need to be scared of viruses if you know what you are doing, specially nowadays you have to either get very unlucky or really look for it to actually get a harmful virus
