Nice. Thanks for letting me know, I've submitted a request to MS to investigate.

Just doing some quick googling it looks like I'm in good company, lots of false positives with similar names.

For safe measure I've uploaded the extension to VirusTotal, you can few the results here or feel free to upload it and scan for yourself. https://www.virustotal.com/en/file/9539bc2266bf48f25e431c9473a73c808aaa52d3a96ca1481f537937ab47805f/analysis/1487162488/

I'll leave this open until I hear back from Microsoft.

Just got a response from Microsoft Malware Protection Center, their latest definitions have been updated to resolve the false positive.
