Chrome calls you malicious

Asked by Eric Ursin

Tried downloading your windows binary and was blocked by Google Chrome, which called the file Malicious Malware. Do I need to be concerned?

Funny I just got the exact same message not even a half hour ago. Googled and found this thread which is only an hour old. I am suspicious especially since I find no other information on this matter via google.

Here is the file I attempted to download:

KiCad_stable-2013.07.07-BZR4022_Win_full_version.exe

Yes, that is the same file I tried. Still wondering if it's infected??

I ended up using <gasp> Internet Explorer to do the download. I then scanned it for viruses and installed it, and have been using it. Apparently a Chrome issue, NOT Kicad.

Can you help with this problem?
