So, how do I get around that?

TURBODRIVER Posted July 27, 2021 Posted July 27, 2021 Although you haven't specified what told you that, I will assume it's your browser and not your "computer". This is a pretty common occurrence with freshly uploaded zip files. Their hashes along with the source domain aren't yet verified by your browser provider, like Chrome by Google, Firefox by Mozilla or Edge by Microsoft, so you're warned about it. If something is new, it's more likely to be dangerous, because nobody knows what it is yet. If you're worried, just wait a day or two and the file will be downloaded by enough people for it to be verified and the hash of the zip file will be recognized as not harmful. I could be off on some details so I advise you research this matter yourself and if anybody knows more on how the procedure works they can correct me.

There's two links to click on the first one my computer doesn't like apparently but the link to download zip worked. Thanks for taking the time to help, much appreciated.
