Hi, sorry that has been caught as a false positive.

In actual fact, it looks like the file isn't even needed for the release - so I'll look to remove it in the next version.

However, it would be great if you could report this to the virus detector developers so they can add it to the white list.

Will do. Thanks for the quick response. As added re-assurance, I ran it through virustotal.com and it has a clean report in case anyone wants extra verification:
