   Andrew and others have asked for these to be taken down in the past.  
Most listings are shady and likely contain malware.  I contacted the 
developer of the first listing last year [1] but he never responded.  
While SourceForge might not care about malware*, large US-based 
companies usually care about copyright and trademark violations (which 
was a solid legal basis for Andrew to request takedown).

   I'm not super sure where to go from there though.  This might be a 
better question for Wendy Seltzer.
