I'm also a member here going on 20 years (come April), and I have been using Norton for years, on several laptops with various Windows versions, and have never had a problem downloading any freebies from Renderosity.

I'm apart of the freestuff team and I haven't received any virus alerts. If I did receive any alerts, I would sitemail the freestuff contributor to see what's going on and that item would not see the light of day. I'm sorry you're having problems with the downloads martial.
