    I downloaded the demo file earlier today and Chrome showed me this message:

    View attachment 13429

    Should I be worried?

    No, I find chrome gives false positives all the time. If it really bugs you scan it with a free antivirus/malware scanner

    I guess chrome is detecting that the build contains bugs and is confusing them with viruses... xD

    Looks like it's Chrome doing it's mass labeling of a website as a malicious software provider..........so EEEVERYTHING on that site that gets downloaded is instantly labeled as bad, and gets deleted. Without even scanning the item downloaded...top notch security there Google, 12/10 points

    I saw somewhere that someone had uploaded the actual chrome installer to mediafire...which when you download it, Chrome deems it to be malicious and deletes its own installer, hahahha XD

    LOL! Google, you guys are a joke!

    Google has been a complete joke ever since they made all those millions/billions and started trying to run the world. All that google+ B.S. with Youtube, first denying and then finally admitting they were sending millions/billions of people's private info to the NSA or CIA, adding new "security updates" to their mobile OS which apparently is a complete breach of everyones privacy (collecting and giving away peoples private info), now with this flagged download B.S. from whatever site they choose (regardless of file, the file doesn't even get scanned ).

    Google are a joke. It blows my mind how so many people out there recommend Google's Chrome web browser, or any Google products in general. Google might as well just call themselves "American Government PC/Mobile Software Company".

    By the way guys, if you don't know you can recover the file if chrome gives a false positive. I think clicking on the arrow on the left of the file gives a drop down box with that option, from memory...

    Is b772 the new public testing build or was it just a typo?
