Thanks for the warning. What's IGG?
IGG is a cracking group with a mixed reputation. Early on they distributed malware, which continues to give them a negative reputation. Though, I haven’t heard of anything bad about them, in some time… some repackers also use their cracks, with no issues. I think they were the first that cracked the latest Armoured Core, for example.
Since when was IGG a cracking group? They're just uploaders. TENOKE is the one who cracked Armored Core. Repackers use SCENE/P2P cracks like RUNE, TENOKE, EMPRESS, SKIDROW, etc.
IGG is not a cracker. I personally don't trust them. I don't understand why they include unimportant files in their uploads.
What is the point of including these files? They're irrelevant.

With or without malware, I ain't risking downloading my games from their uploads.
