Does Recuva contains a trojan?

Excuse me, may be i'm wrong, but i recently downloaded Recuva v. 1.10.223 and my antivirus (AVG) found a trojan as displayed below:

 

Object name: uninst.exeObject path: C:\Program files\RecuvaDiscovery: Trojan horse Downloader.Zlob.UAQ

 

 

Could, anyone of you, explain me the reason?

Thanks

There are several other threads explaining this. AVG (incorrectly) showed this trojan in the uninst.exe files of CC, Recuva and Defraggler. The latest a/v database from AVG does not flag this as a trojan, the resolution is to update AVG. There is no slur on either Piriform or AVG!
