Dear boost developers and/or release managers:

Today I downloaded boost_1_67_0-msvc-14.1-64.exe from the Windows binaries
downloads page:
https://dl.bintray.com/boostorg/release/1.67.0/binaries/

The file contains a Trojan, according to Windows Defender.

Someone should verify this & check the other pre-built binaries ASAP to
reduce exposure.

Thank you & best regards
