I have just tried to download new FT8 version 1.9.1 so I can use the "Dxpedition mode."
My Norton virus check automatically removed it because it is dangerous: WS.Reputation.1 Insight Network Threat, risk lever medium.
What should I do?

I, and a number of other users that I am aware of, are at V1.9.1 without issues. I suspect that the totals worldwide would be in the thousands, or tens of thousands, so it would have been apparent well before now if there was a real issue.
"The error he is getting is a WS.Reputation.1 message which seems to indicate that Norton simply has never seen the app before (which makes sense as it is new)."
You can always try white listing in the Norton settings.

Hi Doug
Aborted the first attempt and tried again today with no issues.

Had the same issue with VKCL when updating to the latest version before the Field Day. Norton simply had insufficient history data so quarantined the download until I instructed Norton to accept and restore it for use. All good after that.
