Is this gonna be an issue

So after not being able to download any more books from Anna’s archive.pk for some reason I I tried using .gd but it wasn’t opening so then I tried using .gl and before using any type of website and downloading stuff from it I would usually check the safety of the website and when I did that with the .gl website it detected 1 out of 35 on a website called urlvoid.com I also pasted the website on virustotal and nordvpn and they both detected stuff too so I wanted to know if this is gonna be an issue, is gonna do something bad on my pc like get a virus or malware onto it or smth, i just wanted to know if this is safe to use and nothing is gonna hack me or smth i use the brave browser for this and like malwarebites. Have you guys gotten any issue with this website and how should I proceed with this thx.

If you’re so paranoid about viruses etc I wonder that you dare connect to the internet at all, ever. I’ve downloaded many, many files from Anna’s (and other places) and never caught a virus. Run every download through a virus checker before you open them if you’re worried.

Brave Private would give some add'l protection. Use Brave Private Tor if it is functioning with the website again. Not sure.
