Download Client False Positive and Failure

Dec 12, 2014 Umbriel Son link
I tried downloading the client through utorrent and received a false positive. I disabled my avast pro and Windows firewall is always disabled for utorrent. I tried the download again through utorrent, but again received a false positive. I then forced a recheck, to no avail. Next, I tried to download the client from Windows Client - (HTTP) Cleveland, OH and the download failed repeatedly.

Bittorrent has now been installed and the download is proceeding, so far so good at 49%..95%..Download Complete. I don't have an explanation for why utorrent and the web download failed, but perhaps it's worth looking into. This issue may be preventing others (dedicated utorrent users) from downloading the client properly.

I've just finished the tutorial and everything seems to be running just fine! Thanks for any assistance to less determined potential new players that may be offered. Also, thanks for taking the time to read this report.

Thanks for your report and for trying out the game! What exactly is giving you the false positive? utorrent? Windows? some antivirus software?

Thanks, I'm really enjoying Vendetta Online. Utorrent is giving the false positive.

I've got the same problem, I can't download the client because I've got a virus alert from utorrent (WriteToDisk). Hope it helps, i'll try to use the direct link.

Edit : I don't have any notification, but Firefox just fails to download the client. Probably a false positive again, even though I'm not properly being told.

I'm getting a virus alert from both the torrented file and the download from the Cleveland file server. Both Avast and MSC are detected Win32:Malware-Gen
