Confidence
The Hun's Yellow Pages is a well-known adult porn gallery aggregator that has operated continuously since January 1997. Our antivirus network flagged zero malicious detections across 93 engines, and the domain carries a clean reputation score. The hosting IP shows zero abuse reports and a clean reputation. Independent trust assessments confirm the site's legitimacy: one source rates it 93/100 for trust with no major malware or phishing detections, while another explicitly states it is "very likely not a scam but legit and reliable." Business registration records confirm active operation by The Hun B.V. in the Netherlands, with a trademark history and successful defense against domain hijacking attempts. The site's age (10,751 days / 29+ years) and consistent operation are strong indicators of a genuine, long-running business. No scam reports, complaints, or phishing indicators were found in our research.
Full dossier
Analysis complete

Page Content

The site presents as an adult content directory and link aggregator, with a homepage featuring daily-updated galleries, blog posts about adult entertainment topics, and links to external adult sites. The page includes social media links and a stated zero-tolerance policy for bad advertisers. No login form, countdown timer, or push-notification spam detected.

Infrastructure

Hosting IP 208.74.150.20 shows zero abuse reports and a clean reputation score of 0/100 (lower is better). SSL certificate is valid (Let's Encrypt, 39 days to expiry). The domain uses standard third-party analytics and ad networks (Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, Amazon ads) typical of legitimate content sites.

Domain History

Registered January 2, 1997 (29+ years old), making it one of the internet's oldest adult content directories. Currently registered via 1API GmbH with privacy-protected registrant details. WHOIS records show consistent, long-term operation. Business registration confirms The Hun B.V. as the active operator in Wervershoof, Netherlands, with a trademark for "THE HUN'S YELLOW PAGES" and a documented history of defending the domain against hijacking attempts.

Web Reputation

Independent trust assessments rate the site positively: 93/100 trust score with no major malware or phishing detections; explicit assessment as "very likely not a scam but legit and reliable." WOT categorizes it as pornography/adult content (not for children) with a 62% security score. No scam reports, complaints, or malware mentions found in our research. Historical references note past domain hijacking attempts, which the operator successfully defended against.

Risk Factors
3
  • Adult content site — not suitable for minors; users should ensure age-appropriate access controls.
  • External ad networks and linked sites may carry their own security risks; the operator states zero tolerance for bad advertisers but users should exercise caution with third-party links.
  • Privacy-protected WHOIS registration obscures direct operator contact details, though business registration is publicly available.
Positive Signals
5
  • Domain age of 29+ years with continuous operation since 1997 — one of the internet's oldest adult content directories.
  • Zero malware, phishing, or suspicious detections across our antivirus network (0/93 engines flagged).

AI Recommendation
This site is legitimate but adult-oriented. If you are an adult seeking adult content, the site appears safe to visit.

Still, stay alert

No major threat indicators — but a clean scan does not guarantee every page is safe, and phishing emails routinely spoof real domains.

  • Double-check the exact URL in your address bar

    Confirm you are actually on thehun.net and not a lookalike like t-hehun.net.com or an IDN homoglyph.

  • Use a password manager

    Password managers only auto-fill on the exact domain they were saved for — they refuse to fill lookalike domains, which is the single best phishing defence.

  • Discuss this site on the forum

    If you have first-hand experience with this site — good or bad — share it with the MalwareTips community.

Safety FAQ

Common questions about this site, answered directly from the scan data above — so the answers always reflect the latest verdict on this page.

  • Our automated security review found no threat indicators on thehun.net. The site appears legitimate based on the signals we checked, but always stay alert for phishing emails that spoof real domains.
  • thehun.net passed our automated security checks with a trust score of 88/100. No antivirus engines or major blacklists flagged the site at the time of the last scan.
  • Yes. thehun.net presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Let's Encrypt · R12, expiring in 39 days. Note that SSL only encrypts the connection — it does not guarantee that the site itself is trustworthy.
  • thehun.net is 29.5 years old, registered on 1/2/1997 through 1API GmbH. Scam domains are often freshly registered — a site under 6 months old warrants extra caution.
  • No. All 93 antivirus engines in our malware network report thehun.net as clean.
  • No. thehun.net is not currently listed on the major browser blocklist feeds that modern browsers use.
  • thehun.net resolves to an IP operated by MOJOHOST in US (usage type: Data Center/Web Hosting/Transit). Hosting location alone doesn't make a site good or bad, but unusual geography for a brand's claimed country is one of many signals we weigh.
  • Yes. thehun.net sits in the global top-100k on Cloudflare Radar, which means it has substantial real-world traffic. That does not automatically make it safe, but established brands almost always rank here and throwaway scam domains almost never do.
