All,

Based on this:

... it would be great if someone could check on the various mirrors of
PostgreSQL packages on Sourceforge, and make sure that (a) someone from
our project still owns them, and (b) they're still offering actual
Postgres downloads.

Overall, I would suggest that we probably want to disable all Postgres
content mirrors on Sourceforge.  We don't really have the spare time to
maintain them, and this incident shows that that's a bad situation.
According to SF, this donkey has left the field:

PostgreSQL
A powerful, open source object-relational database system.

Thanks.

They do seem to be maintaining up-to-date downloads.  Can someone on
Windows check to see if they're distributing adware?

I just did a fresh install of 9.4.2 on Windows 8.  Looked like just the standard EnterpriseDB packaging to me, gives you the option of doing the StackBuilder add-ons when complete.

As an aside, though, it doesn't appear that this is where most people are getting their PostgreSQL:
