Appengine help: chrome "malicious software download" alert

[Saverio Pugliese]

Hi everyone, i have the following problem.

I hot an application on appengine. This application is even under https.
One of the feature of the app is to serve (download) files from Google Cloud Storage.

These files are "ZIP" files with inside a portable "exe" (win) and ".app" (mac) application.

Users need this application to "view" the other files in the archive (zip).

The problem is that when users download these files they get the following message

I tried to add my url (with personal domain, not appspot) to google sites, for a new verification.
but when i added it, the site was not responding (response code 502).
If i remove url from google sites, then the app is working again.

But i need a way to tell google that my app is serving secure contents.

How to do that?

Thanks :)

The malicious software warning that Chrome shows isn't an App Engine issue; it's an issue with your site. You can report the issue on the Google Chrome help forum if you want more focused help, but the usual fix is to register your site with Google Webmaster Tools, and to sign the application itself.
