 When attempting to download latest version of Pidgin using latest release
 version of Google Chrome in Windows, from:

 http://sourceforge.net/projects/pidgin/files/Pidgin/2.10.11/pidgin-2.10.11.exe/download

 ... one gets the error:

 "The site ahead contains harmful programs

 Doesn't happen if I try downloading XMing from Sourceforge, but does when
 I try to download Pidgin..

 Any ideas?
