The former just redirects to the download page for the Mac version of uTorrent, and the latter domain only appears to contain the release notes for the Mac release and beta versions: mac.utorrent.com, macupdate.utorrent.com, macupdate.utorrent.com You don't offer any sources or explanations as to why these are on your list. It's also unclear why you only seem to have a problem with the Mac version; you don't have utorrent.com on your list at <a href="http://www.freepcsecurity.co.uk/2009/01/16/malicious-sites-u/">http://www.freepcsecurity.co.uk/2009/01/16/malici...</a> and you only list the Mac-specific subdomains. These domains appear to be clean according to several major malware, phishing, and spam blacklists: <a href="http://www.urlvoid.com/scan/utorrent.com">http://www.urlvoid.com/scan/utorrent.com</a> (0 out of 18 identify it as malicious) <a href="http://www.urlvoid.com/scan/mac.utorrent.com">http://www.urlvoid.com/scan/mac.utorrent.com</a> (0/18 again) <a href="http://www.urlvoid.com/scan/macupdate.utorrent.com">http://www.urlvoid.com/scan/macupdate.utorrent.co...</a> (1/18; appears to be listed as "suspicious" [yellow] on WOT partly because of reviewers who rated it poorly because of your blacklisting) Can you provide any evidence whatsoever that mac.utorrent.com or macupdate.utorrent.com were at any time hosting malicious content, or that they are currently hosting malicious content?

Our site for example (mytreedb.com) has a small and optimized code. And no malicious programs. Look report on Norton or Virus total. Your list is invalid.
