Anybody else's AV flagging AdwCleaner 3.024 as bad?

[SCS75]

I've spent the last couple of hours trying to download the newest version of AdwCleaner, both through Ketarin and downloading it manually. Every single time, Avast! flags it as Win32: Dropper-gen.

I've attempted to get version 3.024 from BleepingComputer and one other site whose name escapes me at the moment. Incidentally, I downloaded version 3.023 from c|net with no issues.

Has this happened to anyone else, or is it just me? Could it be a false positive?

Edit: originally listed MajorGeeks as one of the sites I tried, but could only find 3.023 on there.

I would say adwcleaner is being flagged falsely. I know rogue killer sometimes gets flagged by Norton. I've gone on calls and client's Norton deleted rogue killer as you try to download it.

I just downloaded 3.024 from BleepingComputer & Virustotal.com shows that it's clean.

That's what my Avast! was doing with AdwCleaner.

OK, thanks. I'll give it another shot. Probably just something weird in my AV then.

edit: just grabbed it off BleepingComputer as well, and it downloaded without a hitch. Thanks again, guys.
