hi guys its been awhile! well i know this is the wrong place to post this but i didnt know where... so anyway i downloaded the robot storm mod from several different places and saved it, then i scaned them all with avast antivirus and guess what, they all had virie (or viruses but the correct term is virie or something... i forget) so did it say they have virie because they are modded files or something? or is the robot storm mod gone? anyway please answer or post a place where i can get a virus free robot storm mod.
thanks!

wtf? a virus? how very strange. I'm pretty sure the official dl is fine though...

Some anti-virus programs see mods as viruses. If you don't thrust it, get the one from the main download link, or ask the creators if this is usual or not Smile

theres always the option to temporarily disable it, or to let it dl anyways...

Here is a solution spephen: Your anti virus program sucks, remove it and never install that sh*t again.
Use EST NOD32.
I have used it for years and it have remvoed every single virus.
Robot storm is not a virus file

Its probably going crazy cos its a exe file in a zip like any other mod file made using xcc.

Your anti-virus fails badly.

Use AVG or something else.

They problems he described are those cause by not having YR 1.001
I've found a direct dl at ftp://ftp.westwood.com/pub/redalert2/update/ for him Wink
