It seems like 32-bit Windows binaries built with the "i686-pc-windows-msvc" target and Rust 1.56.1 is triggering what I hope and believe is false positives in VirusTotal. Mostly claiming it to be variations of "Jaik".

I made this project, showing the issue reproduced in a release build done on Github Actions. (but it also happens when built locally on my computers)
This project is literally the "Hello world" example automatically generated by "cargo init", with no modifications.

While I would assume that they are false positives, having these show up on every 32-bit Windows binary built with Rust is not good optics.
