FSBuild installer tagged as a Trojan downloader?

I've been an avid FSBuild user since version 1.39. Great product. I got a virus recently, and once I cleaned it up, FSBuild wouldn't start. I uninstalled and went to simMarket to redownload the installer. When I go to run the installer, it doesn't run and AVG tells me it's a Trojan downloader. This is happening on both of my computers. What's going on here?

Thanks,

Matt Young

AVG is notoriously overenthusiastic...

AVG has never given me a warning like that before. Ended up wiping the hard drive, and all is well now.

Good deal. If there is any way to lock AVG so that any attempt at a settings change is password protected and causes an alarm, that would be good - viruses very frequently attack a/v software first in an attempt to disable or corrupt them.
