The weaknesses in this post is that the links are all explicitly
to .exe files which would be easy to filter if the browser or proxy
are untrusted. At the implementation stage (were these files to be
hosted elsewhere), the files could have unknown endings, such that the
user could re-name them to .exe once they have been saved locally.
