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

anti virus manufacturers need to ensure that there are viruses otherwise people won't buy their products
