Is Ardour A virus?

Could you please clarify if Ardour is indeed a virus? I've heard some concerning rumors about this software, but I'm not entirely sure what it really is. Is it a malicious program that can harm my computer or steal my data? Or is it just a misunderstanding? If it's a virus, what kind of damage can it potentially cause? And what steps should I take to ensure my system's security if I've already come across Ardour? Your insights would be greatly appreciated.
