RIP Emuparadise. Now what?

We've been spoiled for too long. Emuparadise has been taken for granted way too much. Suddenly, when it went away, we realized how difficult gathering ROMs were. Now, my question is:

What is the next best ROM website?

P.S. Why does CoolRoms download a exe file that looks like a computer? Sorry if I'm being ignorant, I'm still a rookie at emulation.

From coolroms you have to click on "download from mirror", wait for a countdown to finish and download from there

I don't see a download from mirror, but I do see an "alternative download link" link under the download button. Is that it? :|
Oh yeah, there is a countdown with an advertistment.
Also, what is that .exe file?

Depending on where you're downloading them, it's either a virus (if your operating system is Windows you should really take care) or it could be that what you're actually downloading is not the actual rom but just a download manager to download the actual rom which is how some website work.
