It would be interesting to see the actual report.

Trend Micro is a Japanese company specializing cyber security, FWIW.

Yeah.
Or if Baz wants to be a little more sure that there is no
man-in-the-middle or DNS cache poisoning, explicitly identifying
mirrors and checking their stated checksums for the download against
the checksum he gets on what he downloaded can give a reasonable level
of confidence. When I do that, it takes me an hour or two of hunting
around the web for the mirrors and the checksums and digging up the
MSWindows command.
(I've posted a page somewhere to remind myself and forgotten where I
posted it, so I usually end up looking for it on Microsoft's sites
again. FCIV is old news, BTW. Here's the command:
certutil -hashfile filename MD5
or whatever. But SHA-1 is better than MD5.)
