You cannot buy this anywhere in the world
The makers have abandoned the IP (Dungeon Keeper)
The game is over 8 years old
If you own copyright to this material and wish for the download to be removed, please contact us."

as abandonware*. Unless the site sought out permission from the current IP holders (which would be Electronic Arts) to distribute the game freely, then it is illegal. Just so people know.
That being said, DK was a great game and it's a real shame they never got to make the third one.
*there is only software that companies can't be bothered to prosecute you over. The IP copyright remains legally enforcable for 75 years from creation. I'm pretty sure there's not a computer game in existence older than 75 years, yet. Some companies like the idea of abandonware as it lets people see their great examples of games from the past without the company having to pay to host it. Other companies are run by their legal department and are legally obliged to loathe the idea and call you thieving scum.

Just fire up your Win95 box in Virtual PC and mount the ISO.
No faffing (well, after you've dug out your Win95 install media ;¬) ), no wasted disk!

AVG tends to have a lot of false positives.
