1337x is known to host some game cracks with malicious bitcoin miners built-in. If you don't play cracked games, maybe it's nbd, but it still stands that you shouldn't trust them.

Haven't found one yet. In general you shouldn't trust any crack. That's why you have to check every game with virustotal and restrict internet acces to all of them. Fitgirl posts her repacks there too.

Any public site is bound to have some just download from known safe uploaders and you're fine
