I had trouble downloading this game. My Avast Anti Virus software kept finding it as having a malware. I have never had problems with any programs from Giveawayoftheday before and I'm sure this one is OK also but I'm going to err on the safe side and pass this game this time. I did try stopping Avast to download it and then scanned it afterwords and Avast still said it was infected. Thanks anyway GAOD I'm gonna pass this time.

Looks fun, but Avast blocks it downloading after finding Win32:Adware-gen. First time I've had Avast find anything downloaded from GAotD.

Hi Dawkins Dog,
I had no issues installing. It's almost certainly a false positive. The giveaway team always check all games before allowing them to be downloaded from their servers, ever since the site started back in 2006. As I've mentioned many times, they have never given away a game infected with malware.
Usually games from these free sites include some adware, but the Falcoware installer that contains that has been removed from the game, so we get a free standing DRM free copy of the registered game, maybe the internet shortcut that is installed within the installed games folder takes you back to the Falcoware home page is causing the warning?.
p.s. I've checked the games executable with Virus Total and get one adware hit via DrWebb, from 66 different anti-malware suites. Avast gives it a clean bill of health as does 64 other anti-malware suites from the scan I made. You can see the results via the following link:

Thank for the reply, much appreciated. I've downloaded games and apps from GAotD for years and it's extremely rare that I ever encounter a virus warning, which is why I was surprised to with this one.
If you've checked it out on Virus Total and it's clean I'll give it another try, VT is my go-to for checking software so I know it's a reliable double check, it looks like the sort of game I usually enjoy. Thanks again.
