Security: positive detections for v0.10.0 installer on VirusTotal #185

Description

@zunaidFarouque

Description of the Issue

The installer for version 0.10.0 (Scratch_0.10.0_x64-setup.exe) is triggering positives on VirusTotal. It currently shows a 3/71 detection rate.

While these are likely heuristic/ML false positives, it is deterring cautious users from installing the software.

Evidence

  • VirusTotal Scan URL/Hash: 9c1d7be9e7f7d9091a8e58a56aeee7d57cf8f344166e9cbed593e281e05674ed
  • Flagging Vendors:
    • Arctic Wolf (Unsafe)
    • SecureAge (Malicious)
    • DeepInstinct (Malicious)

Suggested Action

Could the maintainers please submit a false positive dispute to these specific vendors, or consider code-signing the binaries in future releases to prevent these automated heuristic flags?
