Link to malware description yields http://www.f-secure.com/v-descs/default.shtml

The installer was downloaded from http://code.google.com/p/speedcrunch/downloads/list => not some shady third party site. Install worked fine after disabling F-Secure temporarily. ```

``` What makes you think it is a *false* positive?

If it is, there is little one can do about this from the developer side. Maybe giving a hint in the documentation. Or inform the producer of F-secure. ```

``` I think it is FALSE 'cause a post install scan reveals no infection and a pre-install scan reveals no malware either. And FOSS apps rarely have malware problems. ```

``` I get no detection from a freshly updated Eset/NOD32. I suggest that we close this issue. ```
