Dear Roland, quite surprising, as online scans of TrendMicro turn up completely clean. It looks like a false positive, which you can report to TrendMicro as explained here :
https://success.trendmicro.com/solution/1115668-preventing-behavior-monitoring-false-detections-in-officescan#collapse1 On the same website they explain how you can whitelist it. I'll check at home with a few other antiviruses, but I'm pretty certain this is a case of TrendMicro being overly enthousiast in its protection.
