I'm trying to download the sa-mp source files(Windows Server files) from sa-mp.com.
But both ****** chrome and FireFox is blocking it from being downloaded.Reason: Possible spyware/malware.

What am I supposed to do?
I'm trying to download it from the original site.

Use Internet Explorer / Microsoft Edge to download the server package?

Click on the right mouse button, and click on "unblock".
Somehow, the announce.exe keeps coming up with the "trojan(generic)" warning. [Using Emsisoft Internet Security as the AV, scanned with it as well]

Can't unblock it.Nothing pops up when I right click.

So your sure its actually not a spyware right?

Just a glitch/bug(?)

My AV keeps blocking it with the "trojan generic" warning.
Most likely it's a false-positive, since I see no reason for kalcor to include a trojan in the sa-mp server package.

What You could do(and if your AV supports it) is to monitor the executable.
For example, using Emsisoft, I can set up application rules.

At least I can be sure that those behaviors will be blocked.
And the SA-MP server keeps working perfectly.

lmao announce lists your server to internet/hosted tab list of course it injects something into samp-server.exe
There was an error like this before dugi explained it hopefully he can explain this one too

No it doesn't.

You have to go to "all downloads", find the samp.server.exe file or w/e and unblock it from the "all downloads" page. Not sure why Chrome has to be such a pain in the ass about that, but whatever.

So you guys are saying its just an error?
Both Chrome and FireFox is telling me that its a spyware or something.
Try downloading it guys..

The memory-manipulation SA-MP uses to make things work can sometimes trigger a "false positive" w/ antivirus programs. Its been like this since 0.1b. There are many topics in the past 10 years talking about this.

Its safe, but freaks some scanners out. You'll be fine.
