This is a false positive. See
http://virusscan.jotti.org/en/scanresult/383b5b72735de5d987983eeaf3eb037e5182d301

We've had this happen before where some detection utilities
misidentify the NSIS installer as malware because some malware uses
it.

Unfortunately, there isn't a lot we can do about it.  If Spybot has a
mechanism for reporting false positives, please do so.

Thanks,
