avast! does not detect Open Candy?

Is this a NSIS PUP dection?
For the particular download site's risks and incidents ->: http://www.herdprotect.com/domain-www.joydownload.com.aspx
OpenCandy is being used by software-makers and will send feedback as how the software is being used.
In that way OpenCandy can be considered  spyware, hence these PUP detections.
