Sorry I disagree, the contents of the site bring into the question the integrity of the data/ service provided by the updates section of the site. It only takes one dirty file to infect all PCs using the service.
If you don't like people discussing the site you have posted a link to then don't post links to it. People have a right to discuss the links and information given on this forum, especially when the links point to sites with areas of dubious content on them.
Forewarned is forearmed and some of our new/ less technical members need as much information and guidance as possible when it comes to some areas so pointing out that a site holds text files which contain virus source codes is a good idea in my view.
People have a tendency to click around when people post site links, they rarely stay on just the page linked to therefore care has to be taken when posting links in my opinion.
