+1 Sourceforge has been called out numerous times for its practices. It's probably more reliable now to get a Boost release via The Pirate Bay than the official download link.
Here are some options that come to mind ordered by amount of effort:
- Providing checksums
Yes.
- Educating users on the Downloads page
This probably won't be effective in my opinion. Many people see checksums available but won't actually use them to verify anything.
- Changing the hosting platform
A thousand times, yes. Glen
