Description:
Hi, 

when I run the binary mysqlmonitoragent-2.3.0.2036-windows-installer.exe my (german) Windows XP shows a (german language) security warning. Here's a rough translation:

  Open File - Security warning
  
  Windows failed to verify the publisher of this file. Do you
  want to run this program?

  Name:  mysqlmonitoragent-2.3.0.2036-windows-installer.exe
  Publisher: Unknown publisher
  Type: application
  Location: <path to file>

  WARNING (symbol) This file does not have a valid digital signature to 
  authenticate the publisher. You should only run applications from 
  a publisher you trust. 

  

 

How to repeat:
Run installer .exe on Windows. Make sure your Windows is configured to warn you about unsigned binaries.
