You Have Downloaded - we show what you have downloaded: youhavedownloaded.com: http://www.youhavedownloaded.com/ - by IP, torrent hash or filename ..

I'm clean:
'Hi. We have no records on you.
This means you are using a private torrent tracker or, of course, you may not be a torrent user at all! It happens. Please, entertain yourself. Feel free to see what other people have downloaded. The search box is on the top. If you have any friends who use torrents, use it to scare them off.';)

I do use torrents and I have this:

Torrents used are not private trackers...

I thought talking about torrents around here on the forums was prohibited?

not all torrents per se, a lot of torrents are legit. As long as illegal torrents aren't discussed/advertised, then it's ok.

Off topic:
I use torrents to download the games since the online games are big nowaways (over 1GB) and the mirror links are usually mmosite etc for direct downloads. Mmosite itself does host their downloads on torrents as well, plus I rather use a torrent client where I have control than using the bundled pando media booster etc on the online games downloaders.

On Topic: I tried using WOT on the other laptop to access the site and I am getting the same colours as iPanik. Does this mean users reported that site or is it false positive?

Read the replies on the WOT report and people are saying that the site doesn't work properly/is rubbish, not that it serves malicious software. A Virustotal scan came up clean.

'My answer tends to be an unpopular one, but I believe most of this activity is simply wrong and unethical. I know plenty of people who would never dream of five-fingering items from a store, or walking out on a restaurant tab, but who routinely turn to file-sharing networks to download copyrighted content. Whether or not you agree with my views on this subject, it’s important to remember that file-trading networks are an extremely common and easy way to spread malicious software.'

I also see that: ,,Hi. We have no records on you.

I not a torrent user, because I not trust it. I download files only from legal sources.

I know not all torrents are illegal but I not download files from them...
