is trying to sound like a reputable "this is for real" download, when clearly it is not
i would do a classic "remember to download winmx from winmxgroup.comand not some random website you find" - but chances are if you're here, it's either too late you've already made the mistake, or you know better

Someone asked in hideout, so i looked at it and posted.
I shouldn't use clickable links for such. Unfortunately there's no edit option for users.

if you post a URL it automatically makes it clickable, just use something like [url=http://www.google.com]http://trouble.url.com/[/url] to make it non-clickable :-)
(of course you could just make it not appear to be a URL in various ways so it isn't made clickable, but setting it so it goes to google is my preferred method)
