Note: Can you please update the title of this topic to better reflect the issue, so it may help others that may have a similar problem in the future.

This type of error message is outside of our control. Browsers run their own security lists and if a file has a record of containing malware then the file may be blocked at the browser level. Additionally, any security software on the end-user’s computer may also interfere with a download.

I highly recommend you upload your file into https://www.virustotal.com/ as it will show you virus scan results from many different malware scanners. This may help you identify the issue.

Also, one thing to consider, if your computer is infected with a virus, it is possible that this virus is infecting exe files on your computer in order to spread itself. You may be uploading a virus without your knowledge.

Done it.
What I found strange though is that when I first uploaded the file there were no warnings (well, besides the one about the file being rarely downloaded) and got downloaded without the hitch. I didn't change anything since then. I uploaded the file into virustotal and it got flagged by 8/68 antiviruses. Not sure what might be the reason.
