Is the download safe..?
« on: August 28, 2016, 08:59:42 pm »
this is probably a dumb question but I'm going to re-download, and the black window with code looks rather sketchy to me. I guess that I'd like a little reassurance before I run an .exe file that my anti spyware software doesn't trust. Alright that's all!

The download is completely safe, and there should be no viruses that come with it.

The black box you see is totally normal. It's something called "seeding" and it's basically just downloading the game to your computer. So nothing to worry about whatsoever! :)

Thanks for pitching in here guys.

All the FH setup downloads are very safe. It's just that most antivirus software think it looks suspicious cause it's a very uncommon download...I think that's it anyway.

So with that resolved, I'll be locking this. :)
