Add a question about anti-virus reporting a virus in Tor Browser

With each new Tor Browser release, some users are complaining that Tor Browser is reported as a possible virus by their antivirus. It seems that some anti-virus are reporting any program that has not yet been seen by many of their users as suspicious. Maybe also that some malwares include a copy of tor, leading some antivirus to claim that any program including a copy of tor is a malware.

I think we should add a question about this on support.tpo, to explain that those warnings can be ignored if Tor Browser has been downloaded from the official website.

To upload designs, you'll need to enable LFS and have an admin enable hashed storage. More information
