(really reassuring there  Roll Eyes ):
help from the community should be taken into consideration as well, and not simply ignored Roll Eyes
but, thanks for the antivirus solution... as I am not really a "windows person", that false positive possibility didn't come to my mind.

I was really shocked when I downloaded the first IOTA wallet and there wasn't even a hash to verify the exe!

Very shocking, indeed...

I figured out why the download failed and installations fail with IOTA, since no devs came to help (really reassuring there  Roll Eyes ):

If you have an anti-virus like Avast, disable it temporarily before you download and when you install the wallet.

That fixed my issues, maybe it will help others.

A good advice, thank you very much.

I guess the trouble is caused because the exe is not signed. To sign an exe for windows is not much effort and it would help against fake wallets as well. I was really shocked when I downloaded the first IOTA wallet and there wasn't even a hash to verify the exe!

no wallet no exchange?

www.iotatoken.com > Get Started and you can choose 2 different UIs which run on Windows, Mac and Linux, so plenty of wallets.

Re: Exchange, from day 1 we have been extremely explicit about IOTA being a genuine project to revolutionize the distributed ledger ( which we have achieved ), and establish it as a true standard in Internet-of-Things as the 'Ledger-of-Things', this is our focus. All the exchanges are lined up to add IOTA, but we will only complete this process once the network is ready, we're not remotely worried about exchange listing, it's a necessary component for the ecosystem to grow, but it's not acute. All I can say is that it will come this month in 90% likelihood.

can devs make a zip file of the latest wallet?

I tried everything and download still fails, I'm thinking because of the .exe extension and it's coming from github.

Should ordinary users download 1.0.3.eta also, or do you prefer that just bootstrapping servers use it?

The latter.

When is 1.0.3 available?
Actually 1.0.2 has kind of worked for me recently but I'd like to be a part of breakthrough Smiley

I published 1.0.3.eta for bootstrapping servers, but some users upgraded too which allowed to reduce fragmentation of the network.

IOTA works now better than ever before. Bootstrapping some Nodes to  upgraded 1.0.3.eta seems to be a kind of breakthrough.
Please try out the new IOTA experience which is pretty awesome, even with the current version 1.0.2.

having a hard time downloading the new wallet from github, apparently it downloads and shows failed. any ideas?
i always have this issue trying to download from windows. try using a download manager, that surely helps.
also with linux, wget always works great for me.

Hello guys, just installed IOTA wallet, can someone explain what this "network spammer" thing?

With spamming you're supporting the Network, as every Transaction has to verify two others.
