I got 3 updates called "important security updates" but when I tried to install a message came up "These updates are not authenticated and may contain malware" What should I do: install or not

Can you give the output of:

sudo apt-get update

Thanks

S sorry to worry you...I went out and closed down, tried loading the updates (I had done this twice already!) but this time it worked...no warning message. Why this happened I have no idea.

Thank you for coming back to me so promptly
