This is a message I received from Norton security, so I wish to know if it is safe:

We do not distribute any file with that fingerprint.

Please make sure to only ever download FileZilla via https://filezilla-project.org/

Hello,
This is what I've done! I've downloaded it from the original site, https://filezilla-project.org/, Filezilla client for Windows (10)
Why should someone (including me) use another site if it is free anyway?
I'll try to rename it firstly, then delete it.
It claims to be an application/octet-stream (8.6 MB), I have no idea what it means.

Please check the digital signature of the file, it needs to be valid.
