Why would you get it from fileparade? It's not looking good according to Web Of Trust.

Warning: Adveritsment adwcleaner.fileparade.com downloads a virus
Discussion is locked
File parade appeared to be an alternative download site, and I got suckered. What a shame, Download.com used to be a safe place.
We take issues of this nature very seriously. All products on Download.com are downloaded, installed, and scanned for adware, spyware, and viruses before being published in our library.
Although we do not screen advertiser software in the same way that we screen the general software listed in our catalog, our advertising guidelines do clearly lay out what types of things we allow and prohibit:

The following page is a good resource for information about advertising on our sites, and includes guidelines for reporting any questionable ads you may come across:

Can you please send us the URL of the specific CNET or Download.com page where this fileparade.com ad was found?

We have forwarded this information to our ad ops team for investigation, and they will remove the ad if it is found to be noncompliant (as well as block the advertiser site-wide).
