My post had direct links for all versions

this is exactly where I got my file. is it infected or not?
It isn't infected but, since you download in stages, it could very well be corrupted.

let me explain once again - on computer I cannot download avast 11 because existing avast 10 keeps deleting (incomplete) installation file. avast 10 cannot delete it while download going on but once it's completed I am 100% sure it will disappear (even not moved to carantine but liquidated).

why? because I downloaded complete installation file of new avast 11 on android smartphone and whenever I try to copy it inside computer my avast 10 deleting it saying it's infected by (same) virus win32 evo gen.

anybody from avast team can explain me why my existing antivirus avast 10 doing this?
