My antivirus goes the same , the admins better fix this , before "they"* find out and put roblox on the blacklist.

*They , not the admins , the gaming community no-one seems to care about here (Which is a bad thing , since the last game put on that black list , is being unknown for everyone now)

My dad fixed the problem now, he switched off the anti-virus for 10 minutes then downloaded ROBLOX.
Right now, the antivirus is on and ROBLOX is finished installing.

I wont close this thread, so post on about similar problems..

No, it is not a virus. You have your firewall settings very high, therefore it will usually block most downloads like ROBLOX. This is a safe website, but there are other websites that use files like these to send viruses. I would reccomend to go to your virus protection software and allow the download.

Something has definately happened to Roblox. Yesterday and the years before that, Roblox was fine. Today, it isn't. Things don't change if nothing has happened.

Anti-Virus Thinks that ROBLOX Is A Virus Cause It Has "Free Games" So it's Looks like a virus to Your Scanners.


Guess what people.

You need the Good free virus scanners...

(Avira) Its the best one.

And i have NO Problems what so all,

@TK956

Why would the problem start today though ? Something has to have changed on Roblox for this to happen, or else this problem would have started about 6 years ago.
