| This is to the site admin I see that you have a sha1 hash with the binary but if someone was able to tamper with the site he could just as easily change the hashes why dont you pgp sign the binaries ? |

Good point.
 
 
I made a PGP signature, see the download page.
 
 
Can you test it ?
 
 
 
Thanks,

| It worked great although the detached signature extension is .sig and .asc is the key extension. but now I can always be sure that this binary is never tampered with thanks for responding so fast. |
