-**Why MARC Report might trigger this warning**: 
- 
-1. We haven't paid someone enough $$$ to be automatically added to Microsoft's smartscreen "trusted" list (it has nothing to do with whether the software is actually safe or not) \\ 
- 
-2. Not enough people have downloaded the software and selected "Run anyway" for it to be considered a "recognized app" (this Microsoft threshold may be reached when a certain number of downloads occur). 
- 
-**What we do to try to make sure our software is safe to download** 
- 
-  - Before publising an executable to our server, we recompile it from scratch 
-  - Then we digitally sign the .exe with Microsoft Authenticode((for which we do pay someone enough $$$, just not enough to get to added to the smartscreen trusted list)). 
-  - The folders containing the new .exe, and its support files, are then scanned with two products((in addition, the computer producing the software is scanned every time it starts by both products)) 
-  - At that point we run the script that combines the program and its support files into an installer .exe 
-  - The installer .exe is then digitally signed 
-  - The installer is then uploaded to our SSL website using SFTP 
-  - A script on the server is then run to move the installer into a secure folder (where not even the webmaster has write permission). 
-  - When you visit our website at https://www.marcofquality.com, you do so over an encrypted connection 
-  - MARC Report is not legally available from any site other than https://www.marcofquality.com
