My scan (using the most recent build of AVAST 5 free) flagged "C:\Program Files\Common Files\DVDVideoSoft\Dll\HttpVideoDownloader.dll" as a PUP:Win32:PSWtool-L. It's from a pretty common software package, so i ran it through Virus Total and Avast 5 was the only one that flagged it.
Thanks for your product though! It's great.

So, disable PUP scanning :)
Potential Unwanted Program (PUP) is an option while scanning.
If it is a false positive, hope Alwil team correct it. Did you send the file for analysis (when it was detected)?

I mean how do i send for analysis
1. You can send the file to Chest and then send it for analysis within Chest.
2. If a virus alert warns your, you'll have a button to inform (send) it.

Not unless they are using 5.0.533 (pre-release build) as the 5.0.507 build is not able to send from the chest, it appears that it has done so but it hasn't.
Edit: Corrected build version number.
