I used software downloaded from a US government site (.gov domain) that likely has less than 1000 downloads per month, since the software is very specialized, runs as a server, and requires a unique ID given to you by the government to install, so you can only have one copy running for your entire organization.
Every single update was blocked on download by Microsoft reputation filters.
