VLC media Player 1.0.3 installer detected as trojan by VirusScan

When I intended to install the freshly downloaded VLC Portable 1.0.3, VirusScan detected a Trojan (GnuCompiler). I received more than one hundred messages, each one for different "dll", similar to:

04/11/2009 9:48:22 Eliminado (error al limpiar porque no se puede limpiar la detección) A\user D:\Documents and Settings\user\Mis documentos\Descargas\VLCPortable_1.0.3.paf.exe D:\Documents and Settings\user\Mis documentos\PortableApps\VLCPortable\App\vlc\plugins\libzvbi_plugin.dll GnuCompiler (Troyano)

I am sure this is a false detection. But How can I avoid it and get a VLC functioning?

Thanks :|

I just ended a scan with Clam Win Portable, and it reports no viruses. So the problem apparently is with McAffee Virus Scan Enterprise definitions. Eye-wink
