Malware detected?

Sorry guys, I am new to Windows <(use a Mac normally).
But my antiVirus Scan App (360 Total Security) finds 2 or 4 problems in old Downloads and actually downloads here in Download section:

Old ones (From czbf):

Dedyho_xyz???.zip with 2 files infected in this zip. One is called Battle of Sky.exe 

1 in Punkbuster42.exe

1 in Simple_BF1942_New_Maps_2013-07-08.exe

just for Information. Check it please, I am not serious with Windows OS.

Re: Malware detected?

Re: Malware detected?

You may also need to look at specifically what the virus program is reporting the "problem" or "infection".  Some will declare a vague condition like "reputation" because the file hasn't been seen on very many computers where their product runs.  They might also declare it as a "potentially unwanted program" if they think the software or its installer prompts with advertisements, even when it's exactly the program you wanted.  Have to look deeper at exactly what Total Security says it is flagging these files for.
