Hello, Mozilla Support, i'm a game modder from Moddb.com, and my game mod is called the Advanced AI Mod for the game C&C Generals Zero Hour.

For some reason, when trying to download with FireFox browser the latest version of the mod, which is the file that i uploaded at MODDB.com before 1.5 years, Firefox now gives a warning via the Firefox download window that the file is infected with a virus, and blocks the download. The file could be downloaded from here:

http://www.moddb.com/mods/advanced-ai-mod-for-zero-hour-improved-by-aei/downloads/advanced-ai-mod-098-improved-by-aei-v28

The file is called AdvancedAIMod_v2.8.9.rar

Can you please fix the problem and make your browser stop showing this warning? I never had a problem like that. I checked the rar file with virus total, a site that scans with 50 antivirus programs, and it couldn't find anything. There are no exe files inside. Those are the game files i and many other people use.

There was no such problem before one month with this or any other file. This file was uploaded by me before 1.5 years, downloaded by thousands of people, and i never had complaints about it. This is a big problem for me, people will think that i put viruses in my files. I have never done anything like this in my life. Can you please help? I hope that you can fix the problem. Thank you very much for your help.

Sincerely, AEI.
