How can I make sure that the downloaded materials are legitimate and not malicious?

To ensure that the downloaded materials are legitimate and not malicious, it is important to use trusted sources for downloading. Keep your operating system, web browser and other software up-to-date, as outdated software may be more vulnerable to malicious downloads. Don’t use peer-to-peer sharing services or unknown file hosts to download files - these may contain viruses or spyware. When downloading from a site you aren’t familiar with, be sure to scan the contents of any downloaded files with reliable antivirus software before executing them. If possible, always check the source of a file before downloading to make sure it is from a reliable provider.

The best way to make sure that the downloaded materials are safe and legitimate is to only use trusted sources. This means only downloading from reputable websites or from direct sources, such as respected publishers or artists. Additionally, it's a good idea to read reviews of a download before proceeding and checking out the feedback from other users. If you are uncertain about the source of a download, it’s always better to be safe than sorry and avoid it entirely.
