I believe that is a false positive finding from your AV software.  The MD5 
listed matches the checksum for the files hosted on google code so it does not 
appear that you have a corrupted/infected pg.exe.

I submitted the exe to virustotal.com and no malware was detected:

The windows version of PG is a self extracting exe that will dump a python 
interpreter DLL and associated PG scripts to a temp folder for execution.  This 
behaviour is probably being falsely flagged as malicious.  I suggest 
re-downloading PG from google code and analysing the files with your AV.

NOTE: Always downloading PG from https://code.google.com/p/photograbber.  I 
cannot speak to the integrity of files from other locations.
