[chirp_users] Problem reported with Windows download?

[Eben Haber]

I checked back with the person who reported the problem, and he said that he went to the original site, but that he used the "big green 'Download Now' button" on the right of the web page. Since I don't see such a button when I go to the webpage, I suspect that possibly his browser was hacked to add buttons that lead to bad places.
