Bitdefender flags the bridge-win32.zip version 234 as infected #228

Hi,

While downloading and opening the ezytdl app, Bitdefender Total Security flags the bridge-win32.zip file as infected with Gen:Variant.Tedy.604217 and deletes the file. This pushes the app to be stuck on "Downloading" the version 234 at the start.

Note: I have allowed the antivirus to scan archived files.

yeeah.. it's also flagged on windows defender - it's a false positive, and the entire build process can be viewed on its github repository

it seems that it mostly flags yt-dlp's codebase; this isn't the first time i've been prompted about an AV scan flagging the bridge, but thus far it also seems that every single label can also be found on yt-dlp's github issues
