Very weird, this is the TBB direct from Tor.

Trojan:Win32/Malgent!MTB

…Tor Browser\Browser\TorBrowser\Tor\tor.exe

And it links to : https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/wdsi/threats/malware-encyclopedia-description?name=Trojan%3AWin32%2FMalgent!MTB&threatid=2147836816

Anyone else having issues with TBB?

But doesn’t NSA also by that logic know that you have visited Tails download page and have downloaded the ISO at some point?

by the same logic, they won’t know what you do inside Tails, nor when you boot it up
