I was installing MS123 Extra Fundamental/News Providers, and Panda Antivirus quarantined WealthLab.Extensions.Agent.exe as a suspicious file. I can take it out of quarantine, but I just wanted to check to make sure there isn't anything wrong with either file first.

I'm running the latest version of WealthLab Pro.

This is a false positive as you might think. WealthLab.Extensions.Agent.exe is a built-in component that is required to install extensions. It downloads and decrypts them, then restarts WLP, asks you to elevate the privileges and installs the decrypted extensions. The way it does its job may raise a trigger with some (more paranoiac) A/V utilities. It's safe to the extent you trust our extensions.
