Suprnova?

Does anyone use the service at http://www.suprnova.com/index.php ???

I mean... is that stuff for real? If anyone here uses it, or knows of what's inside, can you tell me what kind of stuff they have for download?

.com and .net are scams. They are spin-offs of the original suprnova site that got shut down.

This is where we stand:

Zero Tolerance on Piracy
NO WAREZ. NO SERIALS. NO CRACKS / CRACKING / ILLEGAL PROGRAMS. Anything that can be used in software piracy or other illegal software activities will result in a ban. Same goes for abusive programs like mailbombers, forum and usenet flooders and email harvesting bots. This also includes unreleased products. Workarounds which comprimise security, bypass password protection, or otherwise go to gain unauthorized access to private data or information is prohibitied. Links provided to locations that offer tutorials or tips for any of these activities are also forbidden.

http://forum.pcmech.com/rules.php

As long as it's for legal purposes (ie downloading linux ISOs), we have no problem with it
