The official response of Metaquotes over their support forum:

Quote
It is false message generated by McAfee about the MQL4 Compiler.
All programs we produce are internally protected against decompiling. It is this protection analysis that causes the fault in the McAfee antivirus program.
Ask your question to McAfee support team please.

It seems Avast reported too, dunno what to say but I trust Metaquotes response.

Why? The fact that multiple virus programs are reporting the same thing would logically point to a metaquotes f**k up, more beautiful pre-release testing from the masters of "user testing".

it's something usual to antivirus to give such false errors, there were many exemples like this.
Anyway, free-avg didn't find any virus.

Btw, there are also examples when some cracker uploded an upgrade version with trojan horses in it on very known download site. be carefull
