I wanted to hear Johnny Smith playing "Love For Sale" and you can't find it on any CD's they're all deleted. I Googled it and found this site that offers a free download but i wonder if it's loaded with spyware and adware and viruses. There must be a catch they're not giving it free for nothing.

What do you folks think? i don't want to download it and then find i've got a load of trouble

Thanks for the replies guys.

Alan; yeah i would just listen to it on YT if i could but there's no version up there as it's a pretty old jazz record. There are a lot older jazz records up there but no one's put the Johnny Smith one up I'm learning some of Johnny's solos from a book i've got but, as always, it's nice if you can hear the version as well as working from the music. Cheers Alan.

Floyd; oh dear! i thought it too good to be true. Anytime someone is offering something for nothing you say "Why?" you wonder why and what they're getting out of it. Maybe they're just nice people and are doing it to help others but usually there's a more sinister motive. I found out that this was the way a lot of people spread viruses and adware, malware, trojans, all the nasty stuff we want to avoid; offer a free downloadable product and then when the unsuspecting person downloads it their PC is zapped by all manner of nastiness that could potentially wreck it. Before i would have downloaded that in an instant but this time i was a bit wary of it.

This brings up a bigger issue that really would need to be addressed in another thread: what do these internet creeps get out of zapping people they don't know with a virus that could ruin their equipment? I think a psychiatrist would have a field day there!

These "creeps" have been around as long as computers have been around and psychiatry isn't going to help them. Best just to do everything you can to avoid their little psycho traps.

If they weren't in their basements creating computer viruses, they'd probably be at school shooting their classmates.

Thanks CR, yeah but it's strange isn't it? what pleasure could a person get knowing they're sending out viruses to infect the computers of people they don't even know? it's just weird all round, real deviant behaviour

Thanks Mike for the tip i'll have a look at that.

If you ever want to do it 21st century style, you could try this out http://www.video2mp3.net/.
You just type the web adress of the video you want, and it downloads the audio from it.
