There's no way to know what happens from there. It probably links to external trackers and ads once the script runs. One of the biggest malware risks these days is from malware makers who buy ad space to get into your browser. *The entire page is nothing but script, except for the warning that says the page won't work without script.* That's not exaggeration. There's actually no content in that webpage. It's just an unknown software program that will do unknown things and share your data with unknown others if you let the script run. "I'm not worried", said Private Swifty. "There are only 2 machine guns and a flamethrower aimed at me. How much harm can they do?" With that, he stepped out of the bunker. There's no reason that anyone should routinely have to enable script just to download files or read text. If you want to do online banking or buy stuff then, yes, it requires script. The Box, inc. privacy policy pretty says they'll spy on you any way they can. They'll collect your social media info if you give them a chance. The don't respect Do Not Track. They do use Flash cookies. It also mentions Google adsense. Since there are no ads evident in the original page script it has to be assumed that the page script then calls in numerous other scripts when it loads. (The privacy policy is readable without script by disabling CSS. But they do try to block that functionality. In other words, they've specifically tried to break a palin text webpage so that you can't read it unless you let them run scripts. Nice people, huh?.) That privacy policy page calls in Google, Adobe, optimizely.com, truste (the people who pretend to protect privacy online with impressive gold medallions that look like Good Housekeeping seals), as well as two new entries for my HOSTS file domain blocking: marketo.net and nr-data.net Why should anyone put up with such risks and intrusions just to download a file? There are clean hosting sites. And for anyone just arriving from 1980, they should know that they can have their own domain and web space for a very small cost. They don't need to use sleazy, spyware, web services. I'm fairly sure I read yesterday that YOU are a .... carpenter? What on earth have YOU got to be frightened of? The company appears genuine to me:- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Box_(company) -- David B. |

wrote: Shadow posted: Missing some screen-capture utils, but they are not all editors. Thanks for reviewing the list which is what I've used over the years. That was a concatenation of a list of lists but not all my lists of lists. Those 65 best free image editors, video editors, audio editors, pdf editors, codecs, codec analyzers, and media players are just those that I've used and liked for myself. Some are hard to find nowadays like the free sketchup which died around late 2017 or super which died even longer ago for utility. For screenshot capture, I left greenshot in the list of 65 but I didn't put all screenshot capture utils in that list, where as one example, I used to use printkey-2000 but it doesn't always work lately. printkey-2000 https://softfamous.com/printkey-2000/ Same with the many screen video recorders, most of which don't really work. apowerrec https://www.apowersoft.com/record-all-screen camstudio https://www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/camstudio.html cutescreenrec http://www.videotool.net/screen-reco...ee-version.htm debutvideocapture https://www.nchsoftware.com/capture/index.html dvdvideosoft https://www.dvdvideosoft.com/product...o-Recorder.htm ezvid https://www.ezvid.com flashbackexpress https://www.flashbackrecorder.com/express/ gamedvr https://github.com/FunkyFr3sh/GameDVR_Config/releases gilisoft http://www.gilisoft.com/free-screen-recorder.htm goplay http://dl.goplayeditor.com/desktop/goplay_editor.exe icecream https://icecreamapps.com/Download-Screen-Recorder/ ispring https://www.ispringsolutions.com/ispring-free-cam mangotinytake https://tinytake.com/tinytake-download obsstudio https://cdn-fastly.obsproject.com/do...taller-x64.exe screencastomatic https://screencast-o-matic.com/screen-recorder sharex https://github.com/ShareX/ShareX/releases/tag/v12.3.1 Most of those do not work despite whatever they claim to claim. I only put in the list the utils I tried that I thought worked ok for me. Alls I would want to know is what's missing that works ok for you. Faststone Screen Capture allows editing image captures, doing whole webpages, and screen recording. It saves screen recordings as a WMV though. It's payware. http://www.faststone.org/FSCaptureDetail.htm Portable version available. []'s -- Don't be evil - Google 2004 We have a new policy - Google 2012 |

I need the help of a carpenter just as much as I need help from a bent doctor who spent much of his life in a Brazilian prison. You are a disgrace to your profession. :-( -- David B. |

Are you a carpenter or a computer technician? If the latter, what are your qualifications? Btw, I *DID* read what you had said. I don't, though, understand why you are terrified of what may happen to you if you use the Internet. If you are THAT frightened, you should keep your computer(s) 'Off-line'. There is *NO* privacy whatsoever once you connect to the Internet. -- David B. |
