Is Erecting Hall a reputable download source? I started to load a asset and a warning popped up saying Trojan horse in the file load so I stopped. To bad as their stuff looks good.

I have never had a problem. Maybe it is the popup that sometimes shows on sites that offer slower free file download transfers. Mediafire is one example that does that and you just have to pay attention to what you are doing.

The Erecting Hall link

Here's an example what I see after clicking download for the SW1200 Amtrak:

I would not click the I Accept, ignore it an click on the bigger blue DOWNLOAD, do NOT click the DOWNLOAD FASTER NOW. It should popup the options to Open, Save, and Save As upper right of your browser (I choose Save As and select where to save it to) and any other popup browser windows should be ignored/closed. That has always been safe.

Well that puts me a little at ease. Thanks.

Don't even click on the download button. Right click it and select save link as. It will download the asset without popping up ads that are often sketchy.
