How to indentify false positives (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

So, I tried to install lidarr on my windows machine via the exe on the website, but my antivirus flagged it immediately. I am sure i could just work around this by disabling the antivirus for a bit or by composing it manually, but for all I know maybe someone inserted some malicious code. Is this an issue y'all have noticed? How can I tell if this is actually malicious?

some of the more aggressive antivirus software will flag anything related to piracy.

If you are certain it was the official lidarr and is safe, you can add it to a whitelist so it is ignored.
