On the date of 15/1/23 (15th January 2023) I downloaded the Code::Blocks installation link given in the Binary releases page (http://www.codeblocks.org/downloads/binaries/) at the Microsoft Windows ---> mingw no setup installation. A few weeks later a scan reported a virus (called "Worm LNK file") infecting my system in certain areas(Internet Explorer among others). I safely quarantined and deleted the file but the date of the addition of the virus was reported to be the date I downloaded from the above link. Would any administrator look into this just to be on the safe side? Thank you!
