Hi,sorry for the Subject Title but this is Important as it concerns a game site that Eats Games!I downloaded the game ( Deicide= The war against Evil ) using Downloads .com to download it.
Except for a lack of activity on the site went ahead and installed the Server,the install went fine.Then I attempted too start the game kept getting Error as it wouldn't download Patch. Tried for half hour and nothing so decided to uninstall.Went ahead with uninstalling ( Download size 555 MB )shouldn't take long except I noticed game files from Final Fantasy X1 and World of Warcraft where also being uninstalled.I Quickly hit my Dead switch instant computer shut down.With both game I lost all of WOW and over half of FF X1.I was lucky there was another player lost 13 games.
IT ONLY ERASES ANYTHING THAT HAS TO DO WITH GAMES.I know as I had to re-install my gamers Key Board.I hope you can take some action as I don't want to see your good name associated with this company.I have sent E-mail to the company but no reply yet.I will be writing a report for Game spy/IGN and File planet as I'm a founding member.
I don't want any young gamers getting hurt out there with this game.
Thanks and lets have all our games Safe online?

Found it
Jun 7, 2010 5:50AM PDT

but still problems. The game is called "Deicide Online 1" at Download.com

The "Download.com" web page is http://download.cnet.com/Deicide-Online/3000-7540_4-10549976.html

The software developer is http://thang.ongameport.com/ but I get a 'Page not found' clicking that site.

The link to download the game is below;

http: //dw.com.com/redir?edId=3&siteId=4&oId=3000-7540_4-10549976&ontId=7540_4&spi=0411add98ccc6b3eff479841058b6218&lop=link&tag=tdw_dltext&ltype=dl_dlnow&pid=10549977&mfgId=6267653&merId=6267653&pguid=zTQNcwoPjF4AAHbemu0AAABj&destUrl=http%3A%2F%2Fthang.ongameport.com%2Fsub_page%2F06_Client_Download.php

I have purposefully disabled the link.

But that link includes a re-direct (the ?) to http://thang.ongameport.com/sub_page/06_Client_Download.php and when I click that link I get a "Problem loading page", "Server cannot be found".

Even Googling Deicide Online 1 only gets me a link to a broken page at http://deicide.ongameport.com/

The Download.com page is dated 2006 and the first reviews are around 2006 as well. This dates the game and it is very likely that the web site no longer exists. Some of the reviews were less than good.

Thank you for reporting the problems and I will pass this on to the Download.com team.

I'm glad that you found the site,and have taken action on said site.My battle is still on going as there are a couple more download sites that i have to convince that the site is Bad.
But I will get through to them and will watch that all our Online Game sites are safe.Thanks again Mark

Update: The title has been removed from Download.com.

Thanks for notifying us of this. I reported the issue and because it is an old title and very likely not supported any more. The CNET Download.com team has removed the title.

Thanks again for reporting it!

Cheers!
