Be careful of Old-Games.com and make sure to always use anti virus straight after downloading anything as my Kaspersky picked up "Amber: Journeys Beyond" the game download to have "uds:dangerousobject.multi.generic" which is from what I read to be something to do with the WanaCry virus and this is the name in a way that Kaspersky detects it.....so look out.

that's an "abandonware" site (that almost sells downloads) so in reality the downloads there could be infected , missing files, altered, etc etc
so it's no surprise you got virus warnings

That's a warez site that sells pirated retro games through PayPal. I'd stay away from these a-holes.
