Hiding the evidence: ClamWin's origins

I am unsure exactly where this should be posted as there is no direct e-mail or forum section for the discussion of time travel, but as a side note to whoever has the ability to update the website the page for ClamWin Portable (https://portableapps.com/apps/utilities/clamwin_portable) states it was stolen from the year 20,008. I assume flux capacitors were involved.

Of course I'm in love with ClamWin's ability to detect where other scanners cannot, but considering it's from so far in the future I'm rather disappointed with its abilities. Either the earth was taken over by giant space carrots who destroyed all technology to prevent uprisings and upon a coup mankind had to reinvent computers, or the future is such a utopian society that viruses no longer exist and a copy of ClamWin is only being kept in a museum for posterity. Whichever the case I'd recommend the "Date Updated" be altered to hide the evidence from any world governments or plutocratic social orders that might have nefarious uses for time travel.

Your secret is safe with me.

But there’s no sense crying over every mistake,
You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.
