All I see is 3.0.3 on the website. Can't find the download for 3.0.4 anywhere.

Please help!

If you follow that link then 3.0.4 is there at the top. If you are using a Linux distribution:

Code:

 Install dependencies:
sudo apt-get install python3-setuptools python3-pyqt5 python3-pip
Install Electrum:
sudo pip3 install https://download.electrum.org/3.0.4/Electrum-3.0.4.tar.gz 

The only thing I can think of is that your browser is using a cached version of the website instead of a live version. (clearing your cache for that particular website might do the trick)

Here's an alternative link which has all the previous versions aswell as 3.0.4: https://download.electrum.org/

Thank you it was using the cached version. Now I see the new update. The 3.0.4 download is showing a warning from my anti-virus but it should be good to download right? I know sometimes they will show that although this is the first time my anti virus has flagged electrum

Make sure by verifying the PGP signature. These are located in brackets next to the download files.

For example the Windows executable signature:

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE-----

-----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

If you need the signature for the Linux distributions you can find  the PGP signature next to the sources download on that page.

Ok my signature for windows is the same as the one you posted. I don't know how to verify a signature, but the fact that the one you posted and mine are the same means its secure?

[Welsh]

You can verify a PGP signature by using many different programs available for download. For example, for Windows there's a program called Veracrypt which is quite easy to understand and use.

Another program is GPG4Win. There's probably some websites which allow you to do this too. I'm using Linux so aren't 100% familiar with the best program to use. Personal preference I guess. I suggest verifying signatures for every single program you use though it's a very handy security precaution.
