Alert! Virus from PLIMUS getting DLC

Just purchased the DLC '39 and was directed to Plimus for download and it infected my PC with the Virus SUSPICIOUS.MYSTIC which renders the desktop useless. I'll have to reload my pc now.... I'm using my laptop to warn anyone about this. Tried contacting Plimus customer service and got following message....

There is a problem with the page you are trying to reach, this may be due to scheduled maintenance, please try again later or contact Plimus support at support@plimus.com (please mentioned the URL you are trying to reach).


Is there any other site to download the DLC's? I don't feel safe using their site again.

Please help! Thanks.

Sorry you are having problems but these virus alerts are false and the virus checker is the problem.

The only way around it is to turn off the virus checker when downloading and installing the file as its not something we can do anything about - the bug is in the virus software.

Thank you for the reply. I am just concerned that the site is secure and will be bug free -- Norton Antivirus popped up with the message right after I clicked on the link. Thanks for your assurance.
