Nah, if you downloaded it directly from the Ares site, it shouldn't be a virus. If it is, it's because it is a P2P software that can be used for illegal purposes, so i'm guessing that's why your antivirus detects it? I use Ares, and downloaded it from it's site and no virus or spyware or anything at all :]

And related to what the first guy said, ares has not slowed down my computer at all, and has reached download speeds of 300 kb/s =P I'd say it's faster than limewire/frostwire.

http://aresgalaxy.sourceforge.net/

just got here, and hit download. That one is guaranteed virus free because it's off the original site. If yoru antivirus still catches it, just disable it, install the file, and add it to the allowed or ignored programs for your antivirus. =]

best answer if i helped! =D
