Watch out for that old file-sharing directory that's still live

I stumbled onto a FTP server last Tuesday that's been serving MP3s since 2001, no updates in 15 years, but it's still crawling with malware hidden in the song files. Has anyone else ran into old download sites that are basically traps now?

Yeah I've seen that, old FTP boxes are usually unpatched and full of junk.

Wait is that actually a big deal anymore?
