More major NSIS false positives (Evo-gen)

Viruses and worms

Hello,
It seems Avast is at it again!

“Win32:Evo-gen [Susp]” detections on harmless, empty installers.

I reported them via your form and for 4-5 days now I see no changes.

Virustotal (Evo-gen does not show on VT): https://www.virustotal.com/en/file/fe190490cfc77d1e7e468dfb5dd3b1e9298821aa759faa97e81eeb2f9347458e/analysis/1422932308/

This is a major inconvenience for developers using NSIS to install their software. Please make more careful detections, Avast!

avast says it is suspicious, not that it detected malware therefor it is not a false positive.

You are using a beta version of nsis, that means you can expect problems.
