Submit the link you downloaded from to your antivirus program's test site. Quite often, antivirus products use overly-broad tests, with the idea that it is better to have 99 false positives than miss 1 real threat. There are some tests that would flag important Windows files as dangerous, but there are exclusions written into the programs to let them go.

That problem showed up a couple of months ago over on the MakeMKV forum - because the update server is in Russia, one antivirus vendor flagged it as malware, until someone submitted the download link for review. Just as quickly as it was flagged as malware, it was flagged as being safe.

I just got a trojan detection from Microsoft Security Essentials on Windows 7.
It didn't like the C:\Program Files\HandBrake Nightly\uninst.exe file and quarantined it due to "Trojan:Win32/Rundas!plock"
This was while installing the latest nightly build
HandBrake-20160709-0fc54d0_x86_64-Win_GUI.exe

I submitted the file to Microsoft here:
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/securit ... ubmit.aspx

But I'm not sure if I need to extract the files and submit that one separately?
