Problem downloading 1.69.0 for Windows
Hi, Windows Defender is blocking my download from https://www.boost.org/users/history/version_1_69_0.html as it is identified as being unsafe. Can anybody advise, please? Best wishes. Tim Burgess Raised Bar Ltd. E: mailto:tim@raisedbar.net tim@raisedbar.net M: +44 (0)7989 486976
Noted by others. White-list it, and all of Boost release zips. The zipping process produces effectively random patterns that trigger a false-positive antivirus signature match. Microsoft have been asked to whitelist it but . Don't panic ;-) Paul --- Paul A.

Thanks for the reassurance - couldn't image that there was a real problem,
but better safe than sorry. My ESET anti-virus gave it a clean bill of
health, so I'm building libraries right now.
Best wishes.
