they also always tell you that they do not change any applications you download, which is always good to know

Correct.

Everything on the site Is free to download, and It doesn't come packed with Installers. I'm not sure whether It's still the case, but CNET were/are terrible to deal with- almost every file had an Installer associated with It. For this very reason, I've stopped using them.

ive hard tough times with them, their website isnt well optimised so the page actually takes a long time to load & their apps indeed have seperate installers with ads in them
