What does an independent developer have to do so their software downloaded doesn't look like malware. In the latest build of Chrome it labels most setup files as dangerous: "file_name is not commonly downloaded and could be dangerous". It also now hides the Save button under a down menu via a tiny arrow. Discard is the only button displayed.

There really needs to be a system at Google so independent software developers are't mistakenly labeled as dangerous.

I am working on the same topic. The dynamic and evolving threat landscape of malicious activities on the Web is very fascinating. I wish I was in this great team.

While your stats are impressive, they do not report on the number of false positives. I run a web site that your automated checks think is hosting malware, which is untrue. Asking for a review does not seem to clear the situation.

In the meantime, I am loosing thousands of visits a day.No thnals for that, Google

Isn't it good to know that Google is at the forefront of making sure that the Internet should be free for everyone to use, while at the same time being vocal enough in reminding Web users to be cautious and responsible with their online activities? I believe we ought to give Google a lot of credit for doing so.

I was considering on getting magic desktop from easybits as a safe browser solution, do you know it? it's for my children and I want to understand whether this would be a preferable solution to avoid some of the issues you mention. Their page is http://www.magicdesktop.com/, if you can share an assessment of whether this is safe compared to your software would be most appreciated.
