				SCP gave me viruses

				SCP Containment Breach gave me a bad virus so I had to delete it.
I don't have a very beefy computer and I want to download it again for the pleasures.
Is there a way to download it without it hurting my computer?

... how did that happen? 
Did you download it from the official website? (scpcbgame.com) If so, it shouldn't give you a virus. What antivirus software do you have?

Then it's most likely your antivirus derping. There's nothing in the game that will harm your computer, all of us guarantee that.

Even though it's a false positive something in 1.3.2 is still clearly tiping off Windows Defender. Whether or not there's actually a virus it would be nice to find the root of the cause.

It's probably just the launcher, because sometimes I use launchers for non-Steam games and it

's off Bitdefender. Just block it from going into the SCP .rar.

				Weird. I never got a virus from downloading all the versions of SCP:CB from the official link, and I have tried this on Norton, Avast and Avira. You might need to scan your entire system though; there might be a virus lurking around your computer even before the download.
