I just tested the Buzzheavier link for the flower patch and had 0 issues, went straight to the mostly white page with the direct download link, clicked that, started downloading fine. Like I said, get a decent adblocker and a VPN and then tehre are no issues most likely (can't test it without those myself, my VPN is set up to where I turn that off it completely kills my internet connection). I use Private Internet Access and uBlock and Adblock+ to avoid the headaches you mentioned and to make the internet great again. Also might be worth mentioning I'm still on Windows 7, not sure if 10 would make everything fuck up again or not, but doubtful.
