Flagged by Antivirus software

I am inclined to trust the PoB community, but wanted to post about an anti virus warning when I attempted to install PoB2 from the exe. AVG has warned that it found IDP.Generic in the exe.

Yeah, that's a common issue with AVG and whenever we release a new executable in general. If it allays your fears, it's the same executable that PoB has always used, just with some renaming for PoE2.

The portable version triggered Windows Defender as Trojan:Script/Wacatac.F!ml. Virus total came up clean. Just wanted to let you know of the false positive. The installer did not trigger any false positives. https://www.virustotal.com/gui/url-analysis/u-3a2f5c94310edd958ca16c4d9038289ab6f91d21f52dfc66b2ca2fb794b7d4c9-1737179098

The installed version triggers Trojan:Win32/Bearfoos.A!ml warning on windows defender. I am aware that this is ml triggered.

It complains about 'Path of Building Community (Poe2).lnk' and the executable itself.

I'm trying to install PoB 1 for the new PoE event, but it keeps being moved to quarantine, idk why. The latest one is ''IDP.generic''. Could anyone tell me whats going on?

First off, this is the PoB 2 repo.
Secondly, it's fine, just a false positive.
