Go on ActiveX's website and download it off there. If you download it from somewhere else then it is more likely to be a virus!!

Don't go to any "crack" sites, that is a good way to get a virus, if you have the original disc, talk to Roxio, if you can prove you have a legitimate copy, they can help you.

Well here is a tip dont download anything youre not sure about and if i were you i would download it and when it is finished downloading scan it with a Antivirus software which you should have because if you dont you are getting viruses right now so if the scan says there are no viruses go ahead and install it. But always remember if its to good to be true dont do it.

THERE IS ANOTHER P2P DOWNLOADER CALLED SHAREAZA, THIS IS WHAT I USE. I HAVE MANY GAMES AND HAVE NEVER FOUND A VIRUS....ALTHOUGH YOU SHOULD ONLY DOWNLOAD GAMES IF YOU OWN THE ORIGINAL, OTHERWISE THAT WOULD BE PIRATING, *WINK WINK

No, at least they shouldn't.  However some games you download form the web come bundled with other programs like spyware and adware, both of which can seriously degrade the computer's performance even while not playing the game.\n\nAlso, some anti-copying software shipped with commercial games has been known to play havoc with computers. The worst of these that I've run into is StarForce copy protection.  Here's a website that lists titles of games that include that noxious program:\n\nhttp://www.similarities.org/starforce.html\n\nAs far as spyware/adware removal, there are several tools out there.  Two of the most popular are Ad-Aware from LavaSoft and Spybot Search and Destroy. Both are free and I recommend using at least one of them on a regular basis.\n\nhttp://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/\nhttp://www.safer-networking.org/en/download/

Classic game! I've got it on an Amstrad emulator.\n\nFollow these instructions to get that game and hundreds of others.\n\nClick on the link below, then scroll down to the very bottom and click on "Winape 2.0 Alpha 4" to download it. This is the best Amstrad emulator available.\n\nOnce installed, go back to the same link, and at the top of the page click on "Downloads" and this will take you to an A-Z. Click "R" under the NVG heading and R-type is the first game on the list. \nDownload and play - simple.\n\nBrowse through the A-Z and you will find hundreds of classic games to download, all totally free.\n\nWinape can be a bit confusing for first time users so if you are having any problems feel free to email me and I'll help you out.\n\nhttp://tacgr.emuunlim.com/emulators/emulators.php\n\n\nPS, I just want to point out that on your profile screen you do not allow email but I have noticed that your user name is actually your email adress so if you really don't want to be contacted I suggest you change it...\n\n:)\n\nEmail me if you get a problem with Winape. Happy gaming.

This is a security feature in Internet Explorer that prevents programs from installing without you knowing it.  If your trying to install a program, run a game, etc., just right click the notification and select "allow Active X to run".  Otherwise, you don't have to do anything.

Everyone should take this to heart.  If you download an OS from the web.\n\nIt is not going to work.  If you do not have the activation key to XP or any other one you are just asking for trouble.\n\nIt is an illegal website.\n\nDB

No, I have gotten a couple of games  and when i got my laptop they worked. Just download the game again and I think your username lets them know you already paid for it

haha, i love the first two posts.\n\nYes, I installed it on a PC with a 3mz processor and 1gb memory and didn't have any serious hardware performance issues.  So far, so good.  The only real problem I've had is that it didn't pick up an audio driver, but that's only a minor detail for a beta version.  The games are pretty cool; I'm glad they added chess.  The kids games are... well, interesting.  I love the "windows key+tab" window panes feature.  There's some annoying warning messages when you try to get into system configuration type things.  I can't figure out how to turn those off yet.  I like it so far.  I wouldn't suggest using it for a main PC though.  There's bound to be some bugs so you might throw in another drive to boot it if you have a spare.

It is ok to download games/films from Yahoo. However make\nprecautions as all downloads have potential virus and esp\nspyware attached to . So do keep your computer safe with the\ninstallation of anti vrus and anti spyware as well as a firewall.\n\nI recomend the following :-\n1) Firewall - ZoneAlarm Firewall  or   Sygate Firewall\n2) Anti Virus - AVG Anti Virus and/or Sophos Anti Virus\n3) Anti Spyware - Ewido Anti Malware \n                - Search and Destroy\n4) Window Registry Protection - WinPetrol\n5) General Registry Protect = Process Guard\n\ntry and good luck

not dangerous but it does load a ton of useless junk / spyware on your computer\n\ngo to oldversion.com and get aim 5.2.3292, and download aimutation 1.3.2 from softpedia

The cost of XP becomes moot if you're using an older computer that won't support the remaining minimum requirements of the game. And I'm gonna bet that's probably where you are.\n\nUpdate: Well, I'm at a slight loss because when you mention "Professional", there is a Windows XP Professional. Still, without actually seeing how your computer is acting or responding, it's hard to make the most accurate diagnosis.\n\nBTW, here's an odd "fix" I experienced from when my stepson bought and tried to load "Medal of Honor: Allied Assault"... it said it loaded, but never played. We went back to the store (Target, just for reference) and traded it in on another copy of the same game. Took that home and re-loaded it, and it's worked fine ever since.\n\nI can't guarantee you'll have the same luck, but it might be worth a shot. You could just have a flawed CD copy of the game.

Not all active X Controllers are bad. Some you have to install to use a certain websites privies.\nInstall the Active X Controller the next time it pops up, and see if it works.\nYou may want to use a good adware program in case some of your settings have been changed. I recommend Ad-Aware SE which you can download from www.majorgeeks.com\nLet me know if this helps, ok?
