I read that in some of the chess downloads from this site people have found computer virusses. Could the administrators please check the downloads on infections before they are approved to the download page?

 For example this one:

We do have a scanner for files on upload, but perhaps its not catching all viruses. If you have downloaded a file that contains a virus, please send it to us so we can test it against our scanners and figure out why its not being screened out.

 

thanks!
