Angband Build 4.2.4-240-g8f823a77f

Google Chrome didn't want to download Angband Build 4.2.4-240-g8f823a77f, as it found it suspicious. I downloaded it anyway, extracted it, posted Angband.exe to my desktop, tried to run it, and my Antivirus doesn't want to launch it.

I have never had this problem with any of the builds in the past. I see besides the builds released today, that previous the last build was January 21st.

Anyone else having any problems?

Many antiviruses will refuse to launch Angband because of "reputation" issue. As soon as the file gets downloaded enough time (100 I think), the problem vanishes...

Thanks. My Antivirus support team released the file a few hours later. It seems to working fine and I haven't noticed any problems.
