Possible false-positive in utorrent?

Does anyone else have utorrent 1.6.1 build 489??
Avast just kicked in and says I have a trojan in it - win32:bifrose-baf[trj]

It warns on scanning my back-up copy of the executable as well, which I know hasn’t been contaminated by anything.
I downloaded a new copy of utorrent but the only one available on their website was 1.6.1 build 490.
Avast has no problem with that version!

I tried uploading to Jotti but they’re hopelessly swamped tonight so gave up.

If someone has build 489 could you please check it out and see if Avast detects anything in it?

ATM I’ve simply updated to utorrent build 490 so it’s no big deal except that a f-p could cause problems for others.

What is the file name and location ?

You could also check the offending/suspect file at: VirusTotal - Multi engine on-line virus scanner it might be a little less busy and I feel virustotal is the better option as it uses the windows version of avast (more packers supported) and there are currently over 30 different scanners.
