What did you do to make it 'get' a 915 map?

Because you can only make it 'find' it if you do it as described here.

Hi,
I tried to download the central Europe 915.5074 map.and followed the instructions viz:

"Scroll toward the bottom of the LinkSave.in page, that opens, until you see "The visitorpassword that you have entered is wrong" notice.
Below this notice, is a gray box titled Visitorpassword. Type navitotal in the gray box & click enter. The download link/links will be at the bottom
of the page that opens. Use the single downward pointing arrow under the word "Download" to download the map. DO NOT CHOOSE “ALL PARTS”

Couldn't find the gray box so just started to download part 1. During the download I had all sorts of Malware changing my homepage etc etc.
At the end of the download I managed to remove the offending programs but not without a lot of effort.
I then started to download part 2 but had the same problem so I stopped the download the only way I could, by disconnecting from the internet.
I then couldn't start my Google Chrome and had to re-install it. Also IE is totally corrupted and will also have to be re-installed. I used 4 A/V programs to try and rid my system of the Malware unfortunately the only program that gives a report is the last one I used MBAM. ADWcleaner cleared my registry of at least 12 infections, then JRT also found a lot and finally Hitman Pro cleared some as well. Obviously Linksave must append all of this malware to the downloads. Surely someone else must have experienced the same as I have!

Is there no other way to download the Maps,

Regards,

Dave

It is impossible to help you without posting, as requested, the specific link that you had a problem with.

thank you for the europe map:thumbup:

Link to the folder download US_CANADA_915_5111 Installer+Patcher is down

this meta did not work

Hi Tendriver, the following are both the same as far as the malware is concerned and they are in the thread started by yourself viz: Maps for TomTom\Mapsv9xx\915 Map collections only\Central_and_Eastern_Europe_915_5074 [1063MB ] OR
Central_and_Eastern_Europe_915_5074 with Automatic Installer & Patcher

However I have tried other links and all links go to the same download file at Linksave

Is there no other source for the maps in question as the malware is particularly
aggressive

Regards,

dave

I used Central_and_Eastern_Europe_915_5074 for the screen shots. The first image is a single page. The next 2 images are the upper & lower of the same page. Same for the last 2 images.

The thread link will take you here. Notice the gray box.


Entering navitotal in the gray box & clicking the keyboard Enter key takes you here:






Clicking the Part 1.rar down pointing orange arrow takes you here.
Click on the red Slow Download button to start the part 1 download.





PLEASE NOTICE THAT NO MALWARE WAS ENCOUNTERED AT ANY TIME ON ANY OF THESE PAGES!!

Hi tendriver,
The Malware is not in the pages, it is in the download of the maps. As soon as the map starts to download the first thing that is downloaded is the malware which immediatley starts to infest the computer.
When I click to download the map I go straight to the Linksave download page which has 2 orange buttons labled Start and Download. There isn't any grayed out boxes at all. Under the Start & Download buttons there is small grayed sign which says hosterL filefactory.com
This is the same as the 2nd page in your post other than the buttons on my page are orange and your page they are Dark Gray
I'm at a loss as I am not risking my computer with the same download I had before

Further help needed if you can

Regards

Dave

If in doubt use Jdownloader ;)

Hi Downunder,

Can you give me more info on Jdownloader

Regards,

Dave

1. I know that. I did post 142 to show that following the instructions doesn't lead to any malware.
2. DO NOT CLICK either of these 2 buttons regardless of their color.
How is the bottom of your 2nd page different from the bottom of the page 2 screenshot.?
What browser are you using?

There doesn't seem to be any difference to the page on your post.
I am using Google Chrome but I tried IE & Firefox and both are the same. I was wondering if it is making a difference because I'm in Tenerife and using the spanish telefonica provider.

1. OK, if, in the page 2 lower screenshot, you see the 5 parts with their downward pointing orange arrows to the right, does it take you to filefactory, when you click the part 1.rar orange arrow?
2. Using the spanish telefonica provider should not make any difference.

Hi,

Yes it takes you to Filefactory and when I clicked on the first part of the file it proceeded to download but it was strange in so much as it said it was download ing the file but I suspect it was really downloading a load of malware first, then after a couple of minutes I got a proper filefactory banner saying something like "Filefactory fast download and it started to count down the % of the download
