Today, Tex Live Utility tried to connect to a ctan mirror at concertpass.com.
This seemed unusual.
I looked on the status page at https://ctan.org/mirrors/mirmon and saw a
few other .com mirrors in the US:
A Virus Total scan of concernpass.com and mirrors.concertpass.com showed no
malware, but when I looked a little further, it looks like there were
suspect files at hoobly.com in the recent past:
I will look for another security related address to send this information,
but thought I should what I have now.
