Why do you think web sites post all those ads on their pages?
The issue wasn't with the adds on the website, but:
* The malware that SourceForge inflicted upon unsuspecting downloaders;
* Their grabbing of projects, and adding malware to the binary that they
passed off as the real McCoy;
SourceForge is going to have to do a lot more than their public apology
for its malfeasance, to get off those blacklists.
They need cache, not only to pay for basic infrastructure,
Distributing malware is the best way to ensure that the only revenue is
from sources that are not legal.

Well, to be fair, I have not experienced any malware from any
sourceforge downloads.
Been using them for many years.
But there are the ones I have not downloaded that might indeed
have malware.
