Could someone else confirm my findings.

Safe hex should include a simple adware/spyware/malware search,
in this case, e.g., google
dvdripnburn spyware

The results are, er, "interesting."

All I get is a black screen. It probably one of those crappy sites you
can only enter if that useless Flash plugin is installed.

Yep! Flash is required. Also anyone using Adblock and Adblock
Filterset.G Updater will have to disable these extensions to see the site.

"...Following installation I got a warning from MS Antispyware that
something was trying to install the NavExcel Search Toolbar, which Microsoft
AntiSpyware describes as, "Software that changes browser settings, such as
the homepage, without adequate consent." I then ran a suggested scan to see
if anything slipped through during the install. Sure enough, TopMoxie and
Ebates Moe Money Maker, two pop-up ad generators, both managed to slip by my
defenses during the install process. A quick search on Google for
DVDRipNBurn and Spyware turned up numerous instances of people finding their
system infected after installing the app. Bottom line, I have no idea
whether DVDRipNBurn does what it claims in terms of DVD burning, but steer
clear and find another alternative before you subject your system to crap."
