Staff miekiemoes Posted July 14, 2013 Staff ID:702558 Share Posted July 14, 2013 http://aws.amazon.com = amazonI believe some vendors flag it because it has some bundled installers there which are bundled with low risk adware. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest masterblokz Posted July 14, 2013 ID:702561 Share Posted July 14, 2013 also is getting java from it fine? because the free version of what im trying to get gets java from that website and java says it can be at risk. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff miekiemoes Posted July 14, 2013 Staff ID:702562 Share Posted July 14, 2013 aws.amazon == amazonaws ?? yes malwarebytes says that it's engaged in distribution of malware As I explained, Amazon is a HUGE software distribution site, where some software can be present there that are bundled with low risk Adware.You always need to review file per file you want to download. also is getting java from it fine? because the free version of what im trying to get gets java from that website and java says it can be at risk. I always recommend to get the software from the developers site. In a lot of cases, their downloadlink on their main page goes to amazon though, so always trust the download references (& mirrors) which are present the main developers site Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

David H. Lipman Posted July 14, 2013 ID:702583 Share Posted July 14, 2013 Just to add to this... Amazon also provides web site hosting services and there have been malicious sites hosted by Amazon.
