Hi, every time I try to download the mod from moddb my anti virus system (Sophos) detects a virus in the mod and prevents the mod from downloading.

Apart from stealing your soul taking up hardrive space, SotP does no harm!
Damn, that was close. Nearly told them [REDACTED].

There are no viruses in SotP. It doesn't even have an executable file in it at all. It's all text files and textures.

I would love to see which file the anti virus says its a virus probbaly that plot device model.
on a more serious note you pack the Large Adress enablre with sotp right? maybe it thinks the tool is the virus.

Indeed.
If you're getting an executable, you may have clicked a fake download link, or your download may be getting hijacked by adware on your computer.
You should only click this button
Then, only click one of these two links: (or just wait a few seconds)
Once you download, it should only download a .zip file, which looks like this (in chrome):
If it downloads something else, or if you click a different link, it's almost certainly a virus.
On the other hand, if you do download this, and it comes up as a virus, it's probably a false positive. Obviously, though, use caution if the anti-virus warns you.
Also, guys, can you chill with the cancer in a help thread? Please? Just a bit? At least till he figures out what's wrong, and we don't get his system hit with a virus because maladvertising or something.

It shouldn't look like that one, that ones cancelled.
