False Virus: Downloader.Zlob.ANW in Windows Vidalia Bundle



	Many people have reported their AVG Anti-Virus is finding
	Downloader.Zlob.ANW virus in the uninstall.exe of the 0.1.1.20
	Vidalia bundle.  This bundle is located at
	http://www.vidalia-project.net/dist/vidalia-bundle-0.1.1.20-0.0.4.exe
	and the signature matches that found in
	http://www.vidalia-project.net/dist/vidalia-bundle-0.1.1.20-0.0.4.exe.asc.

	It appears only AVG Anti-Virus detects this.  The commercial
	version of AVG doesn't appear to detect this virus.  To the best
	of my knowledge, after debugging and decompiling it, it does not
	appear to be a virus.  It appears to be a false positive.  Only
	the free version of AVG seems to detect this as a virus thus
	far.

	If you have information otherwise, feel free to share it here.
	Thanks!
