Python - Webdriver - malware win32:evo-gen

Viewed 90

I'm starting coding with Python. I've download Cromedriver from https://chromedriver.chromium.org/downloads and move it to my Anaconda paste. I run Pip install Selenium After that, i wrote

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys

navegador = webdriver.Chrome()
navegador.get("https://www.google.com/")

I got the error below because my Avast found malware "win32:evo-gen" and moved the file. Is it really a malware since I got the file from chromedriver.chromium.org? If not, how can I solve this issue?

It may have been a false positive, please send it for check, it happened to me too a few hours ago.
