How can I identify safe & legit erotic sites please ?

BeerBelly · October 19th, 2008, 04:38 PM

I just adore the images of the ordinary woman next door, I love nude pics of ordinary matures who are both hairy and busty also, but how many times do users visit a site and get trojans, spyware, malware , viruses and sometimes content that makes your skin crawl ?

Is there a way to check out beforehand that a given site is clean and does not pose any unwanted nor undesirable risks to users ? If there is such a way, id be grateful if you could please tell me.

This place is just great, no nasties and nothing hosted that isnt "right".

You could look for any written testimonials from other satified customers, if its a reputable site it will also have awards for its content and customer service-you could always e-mail them as well. The best thing to do is make sure that any transaction has the padlock showing-look at the bottom of your browser for a padlock in one of those small squares-it will appear and the page will change to https in the address-on no account subscribe to anything that doesn't have these two things. Finally if in doubt, leave it and find something else. Hope that all helps

In terms of general surfing is where the problems lie, I just wouldnt go into sites because I just dont trust them. Is there even an approved sitelist anywhere of different types of sites that cater for varying tastes , yet are tested and can be vouched as safe sites to browse............the hun is a good example, lots of material, but its safe.

If you use Firefox, I highly recommend this addon:

Very useful.

Or, use a Macintosh.

If you have the latest version of the free AVG anti-virus software then it will automatically check that sites are safe before you click a link to them. So, if you Google (for example) 'Big tits', all the sites that AVG has checked and determined are free from malware will have a big, green tick next to them.

It's a bit like asking how to tell if a brothel or bar in the red-light area of a lawless foreign city, late at night is safe. At least use a condom.

There is no simple way, although some of the suggestions here might help.

Sex and money are the two most lied-about things in the world. Most men can't think with their brains when there is a possibility of sex - they will believe, or even make up, any wildly optimistic hope. That's how David Sullivan got rich.

My tips:
- use Opera or Firefox
- empty caches after a session
- don't download .exe or .com files
- use protection
- don't pay for stuff
- beware of freebies eg some P2P software. Use Opera's built-in bittorrent if you must
- never download a "special viewer" from these sites, get VLC media player or one of the viewers mentioned in the Help section
- backup anything precious or use an external drive - so that if you have to reinstall from scratch there are fewer tears.

It's amazing how few members have checked this thread.
I've been surfing for a decade with a Mac and I still research this issue.
I guess everyone's a genius... or a reckless knob.

Quick rule of thumb: if a website has the word "sex" in it - AVOID!
