That is one reason I use Windows 10 as little as possible and Ubuntu Linux as my default OS. -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
Re: [libreoffice-users] Malware in latest Win x64 download
Hi :) So md5sum or Sha checksums might help. This article might help but i haven't used the tools it recommends; https://www.howtogeek.com/67241/htg-explains-what-are-md5-sha-1-hashes-and-how-do-i-check-them/ It's been a long time since i checked things in that way but it'd probably be a good idea for me to be a bit less trusting. Good luck and regards from Tom :) On 10 April 2017 at 21:24, Cley Faye wrote: > 2017-04-10 22:15 GMT+02:00 MR ZenWiz : > > > If this is normal, why? > > > > If not, can it be fixed? > > > > No, it is not normal.
