I just install the latest version of Octave for windows (9.1.0).

I encountered problems with my antivirus (AVG) which moved some files to the
quarantine.

I already complained about antivirus issues (bug 55688), but I think a new
level has been reached.

I checked the incriminated files with virustotal and I got following results:

rbox.exe        6 detections
proxa.exe       5 detections
pstoedit.exe   18 detections  !!!

These are not false positives from only one particular vendor!

As user this is really annoying!

What do you think about this?
Thank you for your help.
