Re: [Gimp-user] [OT] Re: Update blocked by trend micro

2021-11-15 Thread Ruben Safir


In the last 40 years in the GNU field I have heard a lot of bad advise 
but rarely as bad as this.  Ignore this advise by Rick Strong and 
ditch tend micro - ASAP.

These companies are not just wreckless, but manipulative and 
not to be trusted with your security.  They are bad players.

You can talk to them until you are blue in the faith and they 
will still harm you.

It is just not worth the risk.  Ditch Trend Mico.

Norton is not any better, BTW

Since the download he shows in an earlier msg is an .exe.part, the first 
thing I would do is blow that one away and go get it again, (AND its 
checksum so you can check it yourself) this time from the gimp site, it 
is an incomplete download and not even god knows whats it it. Then if 
trend-micro fusses, fuss back at trend-micro. Better yet, remove 
trend-micro.

Hey,

I'm also a user, this is about misunderstanding and gimp is a opensource 
software.

You should report this to trendmicro; not here and or say to your administrator 
to whitelist the application; new update file (or may be your admin has 
configured aggressive rules due to fear of ransomware, exploit.. Lol. but those 
solutions (including competitors) reality is something different than expect.

And for example, some FOSS applications come without code signing too because 
they dont have money but those are usually block by such money making security 
solutions

That are not to be trusted.

1. The OP made clear he is in a corporate environment. He has no control 
over

security choices.
2. Such a wantonly unsupported statement of untrustworthiness is not 
helpful.
