safe to download from?

13 years ago

I need to download a pdf file for the owner's manual for our Sanyo DVW7100. The Sanyo website doesn't have it, but several other places do. Can anyone tell me if it's safe to download from either "mypdfmanuals.com" or "tvmanualsonline.com"?

Thanks,
Jann

Thanks, DA, I'll try them.

FWIW, I had WOT on my Mac laptop. But the FF upgrade 20.0 somehow disabled it. I haven't tried re-installing it.

Cheers,

the big difference here is watch or download big big difference. Watching them online at these sites mentioned is fine no problem. However when you get into wanting to download them to your pc or some where like a flash drive or external hard drive etc then you are on slippery ground because of copyright issues, it can and is often considered theft of copyrighted material. So to watch them as you have been doing is ok no problem and I am sure that is what you meant. Yes I do use hulu and have never had any problems there. Most of the networks also have their shows available on their websites. other sites I have used with no problem Watch your favorite TV online for free Watch Online TV Full Episodes, Movies & Videos with Entertainment News on Xfinity TV and if you want to watch some movies you can watch lifetime movies free from their site Watch Full Movies Online

sorry Lynn we were posting at the same time and I did not see your question about open it online, I did get that add on to check it out but have not found it helpful for me, I also do not like to open anything with out scanning it so I am in the habit of downloading it to my pc then scanning with a right click using AV and malwarebytes. the advantage to open it online is if someone is using a pc that does not have any type of office programs on it or photo programs, with open it online you can use the options in it to for example open a document file using google apps there by not needing office or open office to view it. with pictures you can select to use their option of picnik to open the picture and do any editing you may need to do. So in those situations it can be very helpful. I have office programs on all of my computers so really don't need it for that and I have the picnik addon already in firefox and use it often so I have that base covered also. To find the options for that add on when you click on the tools list it is listed right there and if you put your cursor on it the options button is shown.

I have used zamzar for years since it first came out and only had good results with it not sure why you don't want to use it. I personally would trust something I did NOT have to install on my pc more than a random program which could install malware along with it. Be very careful if you do pick one to install because funmoods has been hitting so many people from downloads.

How do I know which download is 'safe'?

Tried to respond to your question before but it looks like something went wrong because my comment can't be found.. Second try: Show Box Lite is a modified version of Show Box that doesn't have ads and doesn't use torrents. It also needs less permissions. I know because I happen to be the author of Show Box Lite. I got here because I use a service that automatically sends me a mail when Google finds a new search result for "Showbox Lite". To answer your question, here you can find more information and safe download links for Show Box Lite. The website provided by zep516 is legit but links to the official Show Box apk that has ads and uses some shady permissions. It also uses torrents, which can get you into trouble with your ISP. Hope this helps, Kind regards, ries

I cut and pasted her link into Google to review offerings. The ball continued to roll when I posted. I used History to double check its availability. It wasn't neglect. I omitted the period. Big difference.

It looks like I'm the culpret for typing it in wrong in the first place. Sorry.

I think I got a blank page too, but went back to where I found it on Google and went from there. Got my manual ok and neither Malwarebytes nor AVG found any nasties hanging around after.

Thanks, all.
