I have window 8.1, and just purchased this game, and when I try to run the install program I get this error -THIS FILE CONTAINS INVALID DATA. I have downloaded several of your games to this computer without any problems. Can you suggest what I should try to get the game to install. Thank you.

Have you got an antivirus running?

I sent Webroot a false positive report, let's wait a bit for their response.

I downloaded it to my old xp machine, ran the install, then copied the files to my new windows 8 machine, and got it to running, but would still like to know how to make it work as it should.

Well, the answer is that it did not download completely, the xp machine had 143933kb in the install application, and the win 8.1 machine had 79993KB on the first download and 27099KB on the second download, and only 16099KB on the demo download.
I copied the exe file from the xp machine, and ran it on the win 8.1 and it worked fine.
