 The real PuTTY web site, run by the PuTTY team, has always been at
 \W{https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/}\cw{https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/}.
 
+\S{faq-the}{Question} Why do the download links point to
+\cw{the.earth.li} and not chiark? Has your website been hacked?

+We haven't been hacked: links to \cw{the.earth.li} are legit. The
+files for released versions of PuTTY are hosted on a different server
+from the web pages, for bandwidth reasons.
