[QUOTE="SeriousHoax, post: 1083160, member: 78686"] I think there are both upsides and downsides to this. To give an example of my own, I use an app and the easy way to download it is to paste the code on Terminal and it will use PowerShell to download/update the app and install it. With AVs like Kaspersky and Bitdefender, I have to turn off their protection to download this as they block the mechanism while with default MD and ESET I don't have to as MD allows downloading via powershell.exe and ESET doesn't usually detect malware unless their protection layers find suspicious/malicious code in them or web protection blocking blacklisted sites. So, though it's a good idea, there could be some cases where it would create false positives and annoyance. [/QUOTE]
