Yes, Imgburn download has been screwed up by ever download site I have found.
That is why I don't recommend it any more.

That previous version I linked above is still good.

That site worked for me today. I just ticked that I didn't want all the other things and it went well.
Then I did all my scans again and I didn't pickup anything extra.

Downloaded ImgBurn yesterday and was very careful to uncheck and refuse any extras, of which there were many. No extras showed up but the first thing I did was pull the internet connection and run a FULL scan with MalwareBytes.
Six Opencandy PUP's showed up. They could only have come from IB as I had just run a full scan the evening before and had not gone anywhere else.

You picked the one example where I don't point people to FileHippo :-(

Once you install the older version of ImgBurn watch out for updates. They come with junk.
Just for testing I downloaded the new version. Unselected all the junk and still got Real Player, Chrome, Optimize Pro, and Sync Folders.
I chose not to download those things and still got them.

It did take some time to find all the places this junk was hiding and removing them.
