Hi, first time posting here. I'm trying to download the windows binary .zip for Apache 2.4.23 32-bit, this one: https://www.apachelounge.com/download/VC14/binaries/httpd-2.4.23-win32-VC14.zip

My work computer's instance of Windows Defender is consistently flagging the zip file as containing a virus, and then deletes it. Is that a known false positive, or should I be worried about this site being compromised?

I get the same result on the 32 bit zip-file.
64 bit seems to be ok.

Defender reports it found
Code:
Trojan: Win32/Varpes.M!cl
Suspicious file is
Code:
Apache24/bin/htcacheclean.exe

That is a false positive. See the result from virustotal
