--- Comment #10 from Olivier F. R. Dierick <o.dierick at piezo-forte.be> ---
Hello,

Pleading in favor of a bug is fine, but to keep putting back a link that has
been removed as a precautionary measure is not. I consider it as advertisement,
trolling and/or spam.

There are many good reasons [*] to not put the link back in the URL field or
comments and I will therefore ask you to stop doing that.

Regards

[*]
In addition to the questionability of the application, the link is a blind link
to a direct download on a third party file hosting service.
That may or may not be a violation of the software license.

I note that there are no mega.nz download links on the publisher's website.
There is a Microsoft .NET Framework Final 4.8.0 bundle, but the sizes differs
and the screen captures show that the link point to an older version. The
origin of the linked file is unknown.

A link to the download page of the original software publisher website would be
better, but since it's flagged as a warez/crack site I would still advise
against it. Keep in mind that WineHQ bugs are public and will be scanned by
online security services for links to malware files or websites. It could get
undeserved bad ratings because of the links to flagged websites or files.

A developer who finds interest in the issue and wants to test the app should
know what he's doing. He could still fetch the link from the bug history or
download directly from the publisher (visible in the screen captures).

DISCLAIMER: I don't speak in the name of the Wine project, community or staff,
or any other entity but myself.
