If the torrent tracker says that the file has been checked, is it possible not to be afraid of a virus or a trojan?

Question

Adobe Photoshop

I don’t want to be simpering, but some programs even in universities are worthless from torrents, for example, Photoshop for a student has a simply unaffordable price, sometimes equal to his scholarship, but payment there is already by subscription, that is, monthly. In short, the question is - If the torrent tracker says - the file is checked, is it possible not to be afraid of a virus or a trojan?

Answer 1

Do you mean stupidity with arrogance ?
Subscription payment is more affordable for a student than the old price of Photoshop , which was really prohibitive (there was either 1000 bucks or even more).
The price of Photoshop for individuals is 300 rubles per month (there is an even bigger discount if you pay for the year at once ).
For students and teachers - 600 rubles per month for ALL Adobe products , and not just Photoshop - the university can easily afford it.
Even 10 years ago , I was paid a much larger scholarship.
Viruses are to be feared.
Antiviruses do not give a 100% guarantee.
Moreover, I doubt that anyone there checked anything at all, since trackers do not store the files themselves, and therefore cannot check them. The tracker first needs to download this file for itself, check it, and then start announcing it to the network. And how will the tracker download, while there are not many users distributing the file? In short - this warning is a DIRECT SCAM.
All on faith to the one who published this particular torrent .

Answer 3

Always be afraid! There is also a lot written on the fence.
It is best to download it once, and if everything suits you, leave it and use the product. And do not invent crutches for yourself.
