You have to watch even with CNET !  Due to my own inattention I once downloaded a set of utilities for which I had no use. Whilst they were not malware, getting rid of them proved challenging.

May I suggest taking a more proactive approach when considering 
downloading a product such as Open Office from other than their home 
site . . .

Watch for wordage such as "This product is totally free *and offers the 
user additional bundle products that may include advertisement* " on 
sites with free downloads.  

Check the home page for the product before downloading from this type of 
site.  In the past I have used cnet and found it to be trustworthy.
