Clean PluginDetect.js detected as JS:Downloader-AUX [Trj]

[msaluste]

Starting this evening with virus definitions 110803-1, Plugin Detect version 0.7.5 was suddenly labelled as JS:Downloader-AUX [Trj] on my web site (hxxp://help.artaro.eu).
Restored the file from a backup made in May, recompiled at the publisher's site (hxxp://www.pinlady.net/PluginDetect/), but the avast! Free Antivirus still blocks all variants of the file.
Nothing appears while scanning the file with freshly updated competitor's products (MSSE, Malwarebytes, Spybot S&D) and VirusTotal shows only avast! and GData detect the file as "Downloader-AUX".
Also, http://sitecheck.sucuri.net/scanner/ shows my site is clean.
I've attached the contents of the file in txt format.

Please, can you confirm it is a false positive and update your definitions?

Hi msaluste.

Here the anubis report for the file attached: http://anubis.iseclab.org/?action=result&task_id=18bd5af96ab5f35e4bd2a97e9407e5468&format=html
Low risk file could be classified as risktool or a FP.
wait for avast's verdict
 
There are some characteristics the software shares with particular code on Zeus malware.

Non-system processes like wshtcpip.dll originate from software you installed on your system. As most applications store data in your system's registry, it is likely that your registry has suffered fragmentation and accumulated harmful errors.

Mutexes:

Shell.CMruPidlList mutex is also found for particular worms,

Also checked on this on your site, see attached (could this have been detected?)

Thank you Polonus!
The PluginDetect script checks versions of installed plug-ins, such as Java, Flash Player, Adobe Reader, VLC Player, etc. For detection to work properly, it must open a file for some plug-ins, this might cause the Trojan-like behaviour. I use this script to warn visitors in case some plug-in is out of date and insecure.
The attached script you pointed out seems to be writing "mailto: " information for the script author; no anti-virus detected it as malicious.
When can I expect some verdict from avast?
