Virus detected in smbx1301.exe or whatever.

I should of screenied it but whatever, heres the virus that my AVG detected and removed.

IDP.Trojan.CB452937

It's source was from SMBX1301.exe I think is the name. I downloaded it from the link provided. It seems this never had happened to me before but for some reason it happened now and actually detected it.
I didn't download SMBX from another source, I used the download link from the forum page. I didn't download anything else other than smbx1301.exe I closed the ads, and everything. The AVG removed smbx and showed me the source of the virus and the virus name. Which I provided above.

Could someone please explain?

I'm using Avast! Antivirus and I ended up with this detection as well. I know AVG has some negative rep but the fact that I detected it with a paid license of Avast! is just odd. I removed the threat with Malwarebytes and that seemed to stop my antivirus from flipping its shit.

Why is this in graphics?

Also, it's not a virus.

Are you going to sit there and say an error message saying "trojan" isn't a virus?

Anyways, that's weird, since I have AVG too, but it let me download smbx101.exe fine.

You defiantly did something wrong. The installer is smbx1301.exe, not smbx101.exe. I can re-upload the installer if you want.

That's why I said smbx.101.exe or whatever I didn't know the whole time. Ill update the op.
It's never shown that message. Weird.

Your antivirus is malfunctioning. It's not a trojan horse. Why would we be distributing a trojan horse?

Isn't there a zip version? I highly recommend that version over the installer.

Depending on what Joey used to make the installer, it can contain ads and viruses and stuff that can be harmful. I always prefer using ZIP versions anyway as you have a little more flexibility when it comes to where you want it.

Also, I heard some people have issues with using the installer and it trying to use a different directory other than your installation to load its assets from.

AVG is a worst program to use...

Spike from that, use the zip.

But, from the problem here, the fault is your AVG program. I'll try with Norton and Malwarebytes.
