Francesca,

as you know, I don't run windows, so I have now way of checking, but I am
told that the window where the message appears should contain a clickable
element that allows you to bypass the restriction and install it anyway.

I believe this is what Rigoberto (who reported to have installed the
snapshot successfully) did. Can you confirm, Rigoberto?

More generally: this is a consequence of the fact that the new-style
snapshots (also known as the "Klein" builds) are not "signed" with a
certificate, as is required by the Windows OS. The "regular" snapshots (as
well as the official installers) are signed by Allin, who kindly bought
the certificate out of his own pocket. We're now looking into alternative
solutions for dealing with this.
