threat or no threat???

I received a popup box which said the following:

Windows Defender

Microsoft needs more information about this software

Sending these files can help Microsoft improve the effectiveness of Windows Defender to better protect your system. If you do not want to send a file, clear the check box next to it.

File path

[check-mark] C:/Users/Sharon Jensen/AppData/Local/Logos4/System/Logos44Indexer.exe (I put forward slashes instead of backward slashes and changed Logos 4 to 44 just in case it might be wrong to put the correct file path on line.) I don't know what to do. When I was downloading L4, a virus called
Trojan.script was stopped, and I don't even know what Windows Defender is, so I guess I am just a little leery. I
don't know much about computers at all.

I am asked to send information or cancel. What should I do? Is it nothing at all?

Thank you for any help.

It's up to you, Sharon. You may send it, but you don't have to.

The file should be clean, (unless you have a virus on your computer that infected it).

I'm getting the same message and I don't suspect any trouble but it is getting VERY ANNOYING. I don't even have Windows Defender set to run on my computer and yet it is still popping up. Obviously MS has no idea what Logos4Indexer is and wants to analyze the program. Hopefully they do that soon so we can stop being bothered.

P.S. It has only started asking me to submit the program for analysis since Dec 23 when the Indexer crashed the first time it ran after upgrading to 4.0a.
