I decided to go back to this game after a couple of years - I really enjoyed it.
When I downloaded and installed both the original game and upgrade my anti virus software said there was adware and malware in it. If I block those files - game stopped installing.
Anybody else have this problem.

Most likely a false positive but if you want to be sure search the file names of the files flagged and read what there for.

I haven't had that problem with this game, however, I had a lot of trouble with my anti-virus software and Rule the Wave 2. My anti-virus software kept saying it had adware in it. Finally I submitted the file to the company that produces the anti-virus software and they determined that it was a false positive and corrected their software. Rule the Waves no longer comes up as adware on my machine now. Perhaps something similar is going on here with your AV software and ATG?
