Malwarebytes blocks this domain as a trojan, that's a false positive though, isn't it?

Indeed, AV vendors flag LG because the windows executable we host:

  1) It's not a signed executable (FOSS project, signing is a PITA without corporate sponsorship)
  2) Microsoft Defender flagged the exe for wanting admin privs
  3) Google were dumb and flagged us because MS did
  4) All other AV vendors flagged us because google flagged our website.

We had to put the exe into a password protected zip to stop Google flagging us as we couldn't convince the idiots (robots) there that it was a FOSS project with all sources available for review.

Feel free to help us out and report the false positive to your AV vendors! :)
