Howdy party people,

I'm noticing that every time I try to download a certain game from here, regardless of which download method I go through, it tries to add something called "Bloom.exe" to my computer. Looking it up, it looks like adware. However, nobody in the thread mentions it. Is somethin fucky going on or am I just missin something here?

Is likely that you have a rootkit or some other shit that attaches this thing to any download you try.
Scan your pc with stuff like Malwarebytes.

Hm... I hope that isn't the case. Thanks for the advice. Sadly, I can't really afford to get Malwarebytes, but I should be able to find some kind of alternative
