Anyone else get a virus warning when installing the launcher?

Tried to install the new launcher and my antivirus detected the following in it: not-a-virus: PDM:AdWare.NSIS.ConvertAd.bCb

Did I get redirected to a compromised launcher download for some reason or did Frontier really ad this kind of adware to the new launcher?

Edit: It is weird that the new launcher wants to install adware without asking the user first, I hoped that a company like Frontier would give the option to decline the installation of adware. (at least I did not notice an option to decline).

Not when installing, that went ok.
When I tried to run the client it appeared and then closed and then the same warning popped up.
I had to add the installation folder to the AV's "whitelist" to allow it to run.
