Hi,

This report is more an information to be known and take into consideration.

It seems that Avira antivirus is labeling the website as malitious, with malware status.
For the same reason IsLegitSite is labeling as malicious.
For this reason VirusTotal is labeling as malicious. Also CyRadar, VIPRE, CRDF, Seclookup solutions are labeling the website as malicious.

Posible solution:
Go to VirusTotal and submit a false positive for the website.
I think that IsLegitSite is using VirusTotal for status of the website.

Please see:

I was curious and so I looked. These sites are total crapware recycling information from other questionable sources. They don't provide links to their sources of information, they don't give remediation for false positives. They don't give any contact information either. Both of these sites flagged the site because of one false positive. That's just bad science.

Should this be addressed? Sure, but frankly if you "trust" these types of sites you also trust that Microsoft has your best interests at heart (and things like Edge are a critical component of the Windows OS). These "malware tracking" sites are just the newest scourge of the internet that are being abused by corporations as marking tools.

Years ago Microsoft used the same tactics to try to get rid of Linux.

Sorry, good report, but this crap still pisses me off. End of rant.
