So i downloaded some games from a site on the megathread a while ago (direct download), and now my dad is sending me screenshots of the network firewall reporting a 'potentially suspicious activity" coming from russia and singapore through my laptop, and some of the dates match up with the dates that i downloaded these games. There is not really any more information and the firewall also says it could be a false positive, but i just want to ask here if this is something i should worry about or just a regular occurence when downloading these things.
