Yes, it's perfectly legal. Download.com has never improperly distrubuted copyrighted material. Some of the downloads are timed trials, others are shareware and some are freeware. Everything there is with the consent of the copyright holder.
I've been downloading on Download.com for over a decade.

Dear Concerned Downloader,
Yes. This site promotes the leagal distribution of software. Some of the programmes are freeware, some are shareware and others are for "on a trial basis".
The site is very good and trustworthy. You can track the popularity of a download and see what programmes most people use. For example, if you need a programme like winrar or daemon tools, you can get both of these here and also learn about them.
The free virus software by Grisoft and the firewall by Zone Alarm are here. They are free. This site helps companies promote their work and also provides a safe and stable download site.
This sit is 100% legal. And you can't download anything here that is illegal anyway -they do not have any.

Yes, It really doesn't matter if something's illegal or legal, not like someones checking who's downloading 24/7 then was able to track the person down.

Of course it is legal; some is free and some you have to pay for.
