    Default Where's Safer Networking listing SB-S&D's file integrity details?

    Since neither the mirror sites or safer networking's own download site are affording the 'luxury' of the current SB-S&D's file details such as size, created/modified dates and/or MD5, something, anything so users have some kind of assurance they're not installing a botched or worse SB-S&D install, maybe besides answering those individuals asking what such might be, perhaps the moderators might post a stickey.

    Meanwhile, looks like I'll have to count on being able to contact safer networking and that they reply back.

    urrguru:

    Spybot's download page (which points to the Mirror selection page), clearly and succinctly states the expected MD5 of the installation file (spybotsd152.exe):

    Spybot - Search & Destroy 1.5.2 - product description
    md5: CC91B89CE4EBA400BAED4F626487D579

    Application to scan for spyware, adware, hijackers and other malicious software.

    Also: Improved integrity checks, probably up with next weeks update.
