Thanks for the advice, I'll promptly push it in my hosts file.
Adding my 2 cents: softonic is crapware too and consisntent source of malware, still Google puts it before the freaking original sites even for open source and freeware. Had to host it out to prevent my once-tech-savy dad to fall for it.
On another note, what problem has Sourceforge? I always downloaded safely without any registration nor malware, it is the official site of many Open Source projects (I agree most of them are crappy, still there are exceptions).

Well thanks to you both - it's actually quite some time that I don't download software from them so I did know anything  .

Don't know anything about Bitnomi, but I don't understand your view on CNet and Sourceforge - Have never had any problems with them...

Oops! Relying on Windows BitDefender? I think you should go for a real AV for your machine. 
CNet, SF turned crap ever since they brought in this "Web-Installer" idea. They started making biz out of it, injecting trojans/malwares. Web-installer would essentially mean , these Agents(CNet et all) can manage their Malware distributions dynamically. I guess, they might even have a dashboard to organize these Dynamic-Trojan-Installations based on user geography & other info. For sure they install something to read the browser cookies & do other things that trojans are made to do. I stopped using these sites long ago. It's no different from those Russian Warezz sites. lol

Hi, Bitnomi or Bitnami... I couldn't find any site as Bitnomi, but if you are talking about bitnami.com, I have used their stacks a couple of times and never had any problem about malware nor virus. Please could you give us more information about your warning? what software you downloaded?
Cheers, J

After a couple of reboots Windows 10 just completed its latest mega-update, and everything (Chrome included) is working normally. Can anyone tell me what is wrong?

The huge chunk that you installed as "update" is a flavor of Linux with Windows 10 UI theme. Your machine just drank the panacea!

I had to get up at 2 AM this morning to catch a flight. I plugged in the laptop to copy some videos for flight and it started applying updates (Grrrr...WTF). Then, android pushed some update which I accepted thinking I will do updates before copy. I only managed to get data copied 10 minutes before the cab was supposed to come.

Sure.
The update failed and rolled back, but MS's new policy is to not confess to errors like that, so they'll try again when you're asleep.
Make sure you kiss your computer goodnight, because it might wake up for a while.
