    I figured out how to work around this; just press CTRL+J to bring up a list of all your downloads, then choose "keep anyway" next to the file that Chrome refused to download.

    It's frustrating that the error message at the bottom of the browser window doesn't give this option and only lets you choose "discard," but this is a super easy workaround!

    Thanks to the guys at CH for all the hard work, and I hope this tip helps someone. 🙂

    Helped here! Thanks for the info!

    Just to report that Firefox version 78 is now also blocking CH downloads by default, a "Deceptive Content and Dangerous Software Protection" feature has been added to it.

    It can be disabled by going to the privacy & security section of Firefox's settings. No whitelisting option that I can see, which means an all or nothing approach for now. I've filled in a form asking them to remove CH downloads from auto-blocks, though it might take multiple submissions before they do something about it.

    Please let us know where to fill out this form so we can direct all of our users to do so and hopefully get taken off this ridiculous blacklist.

    Sure no worries.

    The article in question from Firefox support is here: Link

    Near the bottom of that article, it links to: Link to fill out a form to get a manual review made of the site.

    As an interim measure, Firefox users will have to disable the "dangerous download" protection feature in the security settings, if they don't want to manually override each and every download when getting a trainers from here.

    What bdo7 said here does work. You can select to keep the trainer from the downloads window.

    Not anymore. Now chrome won't even show blocked downloads to give us the option to override the block.

    I was able to just now download both Aurora and a Stand-Alone trainer in Chrome with zero difficulties, warning messages or other. Likely your settings within Chrome, some Chrome extension or your AV/security software is causing the block. Try in one of the 20 other browsers and see if you get the same result.
