As an experiment I grabbed the chirp-next-20230107-[win32.zip, installer.exe] files from https://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/chirp_next/next-20230107/ and ran them through virustotal.com. chirp-next-20230107-win32.zip (https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/1166435ba1881327a13f115e0a0cf4b9e75067a188d023ae826dc7a44d4ddf0a) detects on four different antivirus packages (Antiy-AVL, Gridinsoft (no cloud), Jiangmin, and Zillya) out of 67. chirpwx.exe is the file that seems to tweak those antivirus packages, as well as the fact that chirp-next tries to determine if it's running in a debugging environment and checks to see if there are any .dll files (Windows libraries) it needs that are missing. This is not uncommon behavior, so as a heuristic it's bobbins. I wouldn't worry about it. As for chirp-next-20230107-installer.exe, it was already installed and scanned (https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/d4cec6f1171d56cfae3a1801355ee60df308c0d71a06b45e9321112447948666) so there was pretty much zero wait time. Out of 67 different antivirus packages, only two (Antiy-AVL and SecureAge) triggered, and that was largely because the installed contacts one other IP address on the Net to download a couple of dependencies. 4 out of 67 and 2 out of 67, respectively, pretty solidly suggest that there's nothing malicious with the chirp-daily builds.
