    Its common for norton to mistake mod downloads when they are exe files. Disable norton before you download. FYI norton is a memory killer too. Thats why i got rid of it.

    It is only telling you this because it isn't a commonly download file.

    False alarm like Norton often do with bigger modīs which are having their own launcher or batch files.
    Itīs not the only case why i never ever would use norton again.

    I would be very stupid to upload a virus to my own server into https.

    Changed your thread title.

    Use Avast, even the free version I use for years now is excellent.

    Would suggest go into C:\Program Files (x86)/Internet Explorer (or C:\Program Files (x86)/Internet Explorer for 32bit windows) and start the explorer from there, then insert the homepagelink.

    nope that has not worked either.... could you maybe...put version 3.4 on strategyinformer or somewhere like that or even moddb. I know it is hassle for you and i understand if you do not wish to but your website link (for me that is) is broken. But I am starting to wonder if an antivirus program is blocking me from viewing it.

    Yea, the link for 3.4 is broken. It's not just Chrome, it's all browsers.
