Avast Antivirus detects Runpod as a Trojan Virus
Hello
For some reason my Anti-Virus detects api.runpod.io as a Trojan Horse virus, which renders the service unusable.
The Alert pops up after selecting a GPU to use, then clicking on the "Change Template" button to select a Pod Template.

It's false positive
Wrong detection it's only a graphql API, how the website communicates with the backend
I'll contact Avast about it.
Sure for now just make an exception for it
Some other free antivirus es also do that
Avast is one of known viruses
wait rlly
avast = virus?
If you ask any IT person about avast this is what you will get
anti virus manufacturers need to ensure that there are viruses otherwise people won't buy their products
hahaha
what if thats true
