is a false positive, the second one recently from Kaspersky based products. Hopefully they will get it fixed fairly soon.

Thanks,

but also scan engine from
F-Secure (Hoax.Win32.Agent.hr)
and
BitDefender (Trojan.generic.1328988)
found virus or may be false positive too.

uses the Kaspersky engine, so that isn't surprising. I have uploaded the latest version to VirusTotal and you can see what it made of it here:
