What does this mean?  Im not getting any sense out of UPWORK at all. The site is difficult to navigate  David

It means that there could be a virus or other bad stuff in the file.

This is the most ridiculous thing I have ever seen from any freelancer platform., can t even get the project files from my developer without going through this nuisance, gosh !

Should we expect Upwork to do the scan for us too and decide if we can download it or not ?
