  I didn't find the signature file too. But I returned to the download
site, and tried again. With Firefox, there was the armored icon. With
IE7, it was a normal file. Well, that is why I said it was a weird
thing. But I am not the only one who saw that icon, so, I figure there
should be an explanation...

  If that is true, then we are still looking for an explanation...
Anyway, it is not like I won't be able to sleep thinking about the
