Using Wikipedia, you can type the name of some noteworthy software
and it will list the trusted URL for it. That's as close as we can
get to guiding you.

      thunderbird (software)

      firefox (software)

Using a direct link to a server, it's a matter of *you* (not Shadow)
figuring it out. *You* are the only person who suffers, when
a mistake is made downloading software.
