My .NET project

Been working on a project for around 4 months when suddenly on compiling the .exe Avast gave me the message stating my EXE was infected by this.

WIN32:Evo-Gen(sus)

Now I wrote the thing so I know it doesn’t. But leaves me now feeling when I release my project others are going to get the same warning. I traced the line of code which is simply calling the ‘On error goto’. so, I simply removed this line and all was ok. Changed it, and all was good.

The issue now has returned which I’m finding it difficult to find. But surely Avast should not be doing this on simple code and giving false information. So my dilemma is ignore Avast as I know for a fact its an incorrect warning. I had AVG, ZoneAlarm and Norton scan the same and found NOTHING. because, there is nothing to find.

Can someone explain why Avast is the only one giving a false warning?
