Please whitelist my executable
« on: January 23, 2018, 04:51:39 PM »
I haven't found a way to contact you in any other medium so I'll do so here:

I have developed an installer for my application (which is for academic purposes) and available at http://www.dhep.ga/files/DHESetup.exe or also http://dhep.ga/files/DHESetup.exe and also http://users.sussex.ac.uk/~mmg20/dhe/files/DHESetup.exe

Please add this to a whitelist so people can download it freely.

Kind regards,
Michael

Hi thanks for the replies I've put in a whitelist request.

However I might clarify that the people that tried to download it were getting at DRep warning which blocked them from downloading it and even browsing the entire research site.

Looking at previous posts this would be because (1) the domain (www.dhep.ga) is new (2) the executable hasn't been downloaded by many people yet and (3) it is unsigned.

However if you could whitelist this (on DRep) so people can download it that would be great.  Would the whitelisting request link you sent me cover DRep as well?

Cheers

Hello,
it should be fixed now (until the installer changes).
