    For some reason the SmartScreen filter in Internet Explorer has started blocking the majority of our downloads regardless of content. These files are safe and are not even being scanned, only blocked based on some kind of website setting in SmartScreen filter itself. We have reported this to Microsoft but it would also be helpful if many of you reported that our files are safe. You can do this by clicking the options tool icon in IE and then View Downloads. Right click on any downloads that were blocked and choose "Report that this file is safe" and then fill out the form. Hopefully they will remove our site from their database.

    Alternatively you can simply disable SmartScreen Filter by clicking the options icon and then choose Safety > Turn Off SmartScreen Filter.
