I'll still stand by my generic answer if the reader is exercising reasonable precaution, which includes paying attention and not just clicking the first thing they see (which is a sure road to madness over time). I guess I presume at least a modicum of caution on the part of anyone who'd even ask the question that was posed. On Google, there are ads but they're clearly identified as such. The last time I used Google it did the same thing as DuckDuckGo in that it uses a big, bright graphic tag that reads "Official Site" for what is definitely known to be the official site for a given product. I have been using DuckDuckGo for some years now for a number of reasons, a big one being that they do not track your search history. If you use the AVG or Norton search, though, they tend to use something else such as "Ask" - which is a terrible "ad-infested" search engine, and you often have to scroll way down to get the real search results. This player is not only protected from intended damages but also spyware and any other type of mischievousness. Developed and released by the VideoLAN non-profit organisation, VLC does not use adware nor spyware to track your data. The application can additionally be opened on Apple TV.

This will keep you free from all forms of viruses. VLC Media Player is safe to download and install on Android, Apple iOS, Linux, and Microsoft Windows 32-bit and 64-bit operating systems. It is advisable to download this media player from the approved site. A Google search is generally safer as you can see more clearly which are ads. Apart from its sleek features, VLC media is a hundred percent safe for you to download.
I actually got stung with a search for VLC and clicked too quickly, and found I'd downloaded some adware, fortunately I killed the install as soon as I smelled a rat. Just be careful when doing searches as the top "results" are usually ads. One should always go to the source when the source actually distributes a given piece of software. Almost any time you use a search engine to find a specific piece of software, one of the first items returned almost always has the big "Official Site" tag shown on it in the results.
