Heads up, the winamp 2.95 download from www.oldversion.com triggers a malware alert from Windows Defender. Another red flag is that the download is via regular HTTP, not HTTPS.

So I'd recommend avoiding oldversion.com.

Let's not encourage people to take VT as gospel though. Lots of ways to get around the tools there. Fun malware does it all the time.
Wouldn't be the first false positive. Didn't trigger for me, so... ymmv.
