So I go to this website, and follow the link from the (now down) home page. I then hit download and save on the link. Then a Norton Antivirus hint appears at the bottom of the page. It essentially says that there is a medium threat for the item I just downloaded, and when I looked even further, it says that it took the liberty upon itself to automatically remove the item i just downloaded. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME. Is there some way to tell norton to fuck off so I can play this game without having to uninstall my virus protection? Any help is appreciated

Also, I've already read the guide and it didn't help very much with my problem

Is there a way to disable Norton? That's your best bet. Or add an "exception" to wherever you're downloading the installer to. Norton sucks anyways, so you should look for another Anti-Virus.

I would disable Norton while you install the game. If you don't know how, don't ask here, go ask Google. I would then proceed to uninstall Norton and download Avira. Just saying.

uninstall norton.. install nod32 add exception for aos folder :D

This happened because you chose the wrong choice when norton asked if you want to run it.

yes norton is annoying also check your firewall

Get Avast.

Make a new folder and then add an exception to Norton so that it won't scan it.
Download mod there.
Install.
???
Profit.
