Hi Georgia,
I think you forgot to run the last word "fs_install_mcr" in that command (after chmod +x). That’s why chmod is throwing a usage error. That doesn’t solve the reason why it’s not downloading though. Can you try a different tool, like wget
and let me know if anything downloaded:
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/freesurfer/freesurfer/dev/scripts/fs_install_mcr

Hello Andrew,
Thank you for your response!
The output of the first command (meaning sudo cd $FREESURFER_HOME/bin && curl
MailScanner has detected a possible fraud attempt from "secure-web.cisco.com" claiming to be https://raw.githubusercontent.com/freesurfer/freesurfer/dev/scripts/fs_install_mcr -o fs_install_mcr && chmod +x) was:

100 2010 100 2010 0 0 5275 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 5261
usage:
chmod [-fhv] [-R [-H | -L | -P]] [-a | +a | =a [i][# [ n]]] mode|entry file ...
chmod [-fhv] [-R [-H | -L | -P]] [-E | -C | -N | -i | -I] file …
However, when I type: ls -l $FREESURFER_HOME/bin/fs_install_mcr
as you suggested, it appears ls: /Applications/freesurfer/bin/fs_install_mcr: No such file or directory
When I type again fs_install_mcr
while being in Freesurfer/bin path again fs_install_mcr: command not found appears.
Any idea what went wrong?
Thanks once again,
Best,
Georgia
