    When downloading CC from certain sites they may ask you to install something or upgrade your system. This is called Adware. You should be able to ignore these requests. Either close the pop-up or in the top right corner there may be an ignore feature. I hope this helps. If not, let us know what and where you are downloading from and we maybe can take a look.

    Is it an actual computer virus or is your game crashing? You may want to describe the problem in more detail here: http://forums.thesims.com/en_US/categories/the-sims-4-technical-discussions In the Technical Discussions forum.

    It would be helpful if you are getting an error message if you share it there. It could be your computer doesn't support the extra memory or something more advanced then I can handle. I don't see any problems with TSR and I tried a few different items. You may need to contact TSR if it is specific to them.

    Have you updated your virusware lately? It sounds like you have a bigger problem than just CC if it is affecting the way your computer runs.
