title: Connecting to server and downloading a file (Security related query)
body: <p>I've made a small program in C++ and Qt. The program displays a list of names which will be updated over time. The requirement is that this list of names is stored on a website and my program should download this file and display the list in the program. I have little experience with network programming and Qt.</p>
  
  <p>My idea is to store the list in a text file on the web server and use one of the modules provided in Qt (<code>QDownload</code>?) to download the file locally and display the list. However, my concern is security. I'd like to know whether this is the best approach and what possible security risks (if any) are involved.</p>
