Trojan detected while downloading Sims 2 Ultimate?

Hello, while downloading the Sims 2 Ultimate Collection using the recent code, I ran into some problems. Everything was fine until the download was at 100%, when my antivirus (VIPRE) notified me that one of the files is a Trojan. From what I understand, the file path led back to the Fun with Pets expansion, so is this a "false positive" that I've heard about or are other people having this problem too? 

This is what I could get from the VIPRE logs, not sure if it would help

  • If your game was acquired through the normal channels then this is a false positive.

  • I believe this is false positive. It will be passed on. Thanks. 😕mileyhappy:
