Simply add their domain to the hosts file to prevent any accidental downloading.

This is a solution for me. It's not a solution for the hundreds of people I've told about GiMP over the years. Some of whom I no longer have contact with. Those people don't know how to edit their hosts file.

I'm not worried for myself I'm worried for them.
