AjaxControlExtender.vsi unsafe?

[Erich H. Franke]

Hi,

I downloaded AjaxControlExtender.vsi (1.0 for usi in VS2005) from asp.net.
But when I wanted to open the installer file, I got a warning (not signed...)
and decided not to continue until I know that installing is safe.

Is the asp.net page the right place to download, or shall I take the
installers from somewhere else?

Regards

Erich

Hi Erich,

Please understand that the Ajax Control Toolkit is released under Microsoft
Permissive License and is not supported by MSDN Managed Newsgroup and
Microsoft Customer Support and Service.

Since it's open sourced, using a private Microsoft signing key will prevent
users from successfully compiling it. We understand the prompt during VSI
install isn't ideal, but it shouldn't be too problematic for a complete
open source project.

By the way, please post questions related to Ajax Control Toolkit here:
