Windows 10: Is The Website Upucuzza safe?

So I am using win 10 Pro so hopefully this post won't get nuked and will get the most eyeballs on it posting in General Support. Someone posted a link to Bitdefender software that came up in one of my posts


The new Ransomware Remediation feature in Bitdefender 2019


and since I never heard of this site before which in and of itself is meaningless however they are offering the Bitdefender software at an extremely low price. Another example they are offering Office 2019 Professional Plus CD Key at 78% off:

https://upucuza.com/office2019-profe...global-78-off/

I can not tell who I am purchasing from? Are these individuals selling software or websites and or stores? TIA.

New FF - passwords


Hi:

If that setting is already enabled, then I suggest as the next troubleshooting step might be Mozilla Safe Mode (not to be confused with Windows Safe Mode)):

Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode | Firefox Help

• Please report back and let us know the outcome, as it will dictate the next steps.
• Also: please tell us what AV/AM/firewall programs are you running on this system?

Thanks,
MM

 

Password not accepted in Safe mode

Hi,

Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community forum.

Have you tried all the above steps suggested by Sangeeta Sarkar on September 13, 2015.

I would suggest you to provide some information to help you better.

• Are you trying to login the Microsoft account or the Local account in safe mode?
• Did you try with only safe mode or safe mode with networking?
• What is the critical error you are getting?

If you are using Windows 10. To go to safe mode you have to follow the below steps.

If you are able to go to login screen in normal mode try the below steps to go to safe mode with networking.

• 
  At the login screen click on the power symbol.
  
• 
  Hold SHIFT + Click Restart.
  
• 
  After restarting your system, select the Troubleshoot option.
  
• 
  Select advanced options under
  Troubleshoot screen.
  
• 
  Click on Startup Settings.
  
• 
  Click Restart and follow the onscreen steps to go to
  Safe Mode with networking and check if you are able to login.

Please get back with more information, we will be glad to help you further.

 

Serious Issue: How to know if a website is safe?

Virustotal has a separate process for evaluating the safety of a WEBSITE (URL) vs. evaluating the safety of a FILE.
I submitted only the URL for the website you posted. The analysis of the URL suggests that the site itself is clean.
That does not mean that the software itself that you might download from that site is safe.

I did not download, extract or submit for analysis the Prime95 software file itself.
In order to evaluate the file, you would need to download the zip @simrick provided the link to do that), then extract the executable file, and then analyze it by one or more of several different means before you run it/install it: comparing the file hashes, submitting the file to VT, scanning with your AV, etc.

Please re-read @simrick's replies for advice.

IOW = In Other Words.

Cheers,
MM
