Such antiviruses as AntiVir and Avast, more than once, have claimed that they have detected a trojan or virus in the launcher. This is due to poor trojan detection in both products that will occasionally misidentify many NSIS-based applications as trojans. It will usually occur after a definitions update. You should contact your antivitus provider and let them know of their mistake.
