It would be interesting to see the actual report. > Is "trend micro" a firewall product? Trend Micro is a Japanese company specializing cyber security, FWIW. > If so, you may need to whitelist gimp.org. Yeah. Or if Baz wants to be a little more sure that there is no man-in-the-middle or DNS cache poisoning, explicitly identifying mirrors and checking their stated checksums for the download against the checksum he gets on what he downloaded can give a reasonable level of confidence. When I do that, it takes me an hour or two of hunting around the web for the mirrors and the checksums and digging up the MSWindows command. (I've posted a page somewhere to remind myself and forgotten where I posted it, so I usually end up looking for it on Microsoft's sites again. FCIV is old news, BTW. Here's the command: certutil -hashfile filename MD5 or whatever. But SHA-1 is better than MD5.) -- Joel Rees http://reiisi.blogspot.jp/p/novels-i-am-writing.html _______________________________________________ gimp-user-list mailing list List address: gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list
