Quote:If nobody tells us that these sites spread viruses, how are we supposed to know?
Did nobody notice it when he went to the site the first time?
O.k., I did some more research and found out the following:
1. The sites
www.aroms.com / angelroms.com,
www.freeroms.com and
www.emuv2.com/index.php contain the same virus. It seems to be connected to some advertisement on the sites.
2. At
www.nesworld.tk if I try to download a ROM, they always say "File unavailable"
3.
www.pokedaily.com/interactive/download/roms.php only contains generic advertisement anymore.
4.
http://bushidov.homelinux.com:8080/games.php and
www.haywired.com/romspot/NGames.html don't work.
5.
http://atarifun.com/NESroms.html is now
www.atarifun.com/nesmain.html. By the way, I would suggest that you list the sites according to the question how good they are. Many sites contain annoying pop-ups. So, I would suggest the following way:
If one needs a ROM, he should go to
www.romnation.net or
www.rom-world.com first. They don't have any pop-ups and they have a complete list with games, including these whole country codes ((J), (U), (E) etc.). The only games that are missing, are these ISDA protected ones like the "Mario" games. So, if one can't find the game there or if the ROM doesn't work, he can visit other sites then.
www.edgeemu.com is quite good as an alternative, but it needs registration. The protected ROMs may be found on these sites that only list some ROMs without language code etc. For example the "Mario" games can be found at
www.theoldcomputer.com/Libarary%27s/Emulation/NES/ROMs/NES_roms_summary%20M-Z.htm And in this way, I would list the sites according to how good they are.
1. ROMNation, ROM-World
2. ...
3. ...
For protected games: ...
Something like that.
