Re: [libreoffice-users] VIRUS FLAG 25.8.4 MSI for Windows

LibreOffice MSI files are carefully scanned for viruses, and follow 
Microsoft certification rules (we have almost one million Windows 
download per week, and your message is the first one about visuses since 
late 2024).

On the other had, Virus Total is a virus scan aggregator, and provide 
many false positives, as they acknowledge:
