Re: [libreoffice-users] Malware in latest Win x64 download

Hi :)
So md5sum or Sha checksums might help.  This article might help but i
haven't used the tools it recommends;
https://www.howtogeek.com/67241/htg-explains-what-are-md5-sha-1-hashes-and-how-do-i-check-them/

It's been a long time since i checked things in that way but it'd probably
be a good idea for me to be a bit less trusting.
Good luck and regards from
Tom :)
