Turn off your VirusScan or go in settings and allow ESO (tell scanner it's safe...if you got game from Steam then its ok..

safe to assume game companies scan their files for viruses before releasing to steam?
safe to assume steam scans game files before release to public?

game community hub says over 9000 in game. 1 or 2 of the 9000 may also have a virus scanner. there are not 9000 posts about the game is a virus. other antivirus programs are not flagging game as a virus.

so safe to assume the antivirus running on your machine had its definition file updated and is now reporting a "false positive"?

report it to your AV company so they can determine whether it actually is a virus
or a false positive and they update their AV definition file.

read a few web articles on antivirus "false positives" so you can determine yourself whether an app needs to be blocked/quarantined immediately or wait for the next AV definition file update or should you grant access.
