It first happened when my friend sent me a link to his game on dropbox, Avast said - “Trojan blocked”.
I believed and left the site.
But today, I wanted to take a look at the new “stealth” game at Unity Learn
and the anti-virus blocked that one too.
I tried to play other unity games but they worked fine, only these 2 games. I have “Avast” http://www.avast.com.
Has it happened to anybody?
I’ve had some funnies with Kraperskey anti-virus at a place I used to work. I sent the gaming DL a build to try my game out at lunch time and I got a network admin and about 30 nasty emails asking me why my game was showing up as a ‘Key Logger’.
Some AV programs see different things, although I never got the chance to figure out what caused the Key Logger issue since another Unity game I did didn’t have that same issue.
Same alert with avast,

It is general issue of having an antivirus on a gaming computer. Some antivirus programs block user from playing certain games. Either disable the antivirus you are using for your computer while playing games or use antivirus protection tool like Immunet Plus, Avira, and Bitdefender etc, which are good for gaming PC.
Use AVG - the best non-blocking anti-virus software on the market.
In fact it just is the best, I’ve been virus free for 11 years now.
Or just use MSE. Very impressed, doesn’t get in the way.
