As Jeff-Groves pointed out, would be... a good idea, if you provided more info.. particularly on what mod this is related to, beyond just saying that that issue was faced.

It could well be a... false positive report from Avast, (& that can occur with other anti virus programs, as well... ) that mistakenly tag mods as well... being a virus.

Have seen even some game exe's, get mistakenly tagged as being a trojan horse as well as a virus.
