While Freeones itself is safe, some of the links posted here on the Boards lead straight to sites with viruses or spy/adware--I know...I've been guilty too.
I thought it would be a good idea from time to time to list sites where this is a problem, and also to list the names or file descriptions of viruses, spyware or adware that we all have encountered. That might help in finding and eradicating them from your computer.
I've just spent two days working new trojans, spyware and adware from my computer that I picked up from links on these Boards--this despite running updated Norton Symantic and Lavasoft SE.
One type of embedded adware that's a common problem is DOHEST. It's in the filename, so if you do a search in your C Drive using DOHEST you should find it if it's there. Good luck.
