If you download from VSO website then there is no problem.
Any other link or site might have anything in their files.

I get the same problem - TrendMicro is my antivirus. With TrendMicro, I get an option to download anyways. I was downloading from CNet so I knew it was safe. Once downloaded, if you are using Win8, you'll need to right-click the executable and select "Run as Administrator."

it seems that some virus writers used the same network driver: Winpcap.
Your antivirus program should detect the virus itself, not the libraries used by it. It's like saying the MS Winsock is a virus because some trojans use sockets to send or receive data on the network.
So, please contact your antivirus company and tell them to fix the problem.
