ipswitch ws_ftp Password Decryptor SecurityXploded

I use the WS_FTP program from Ipswitch for posting and maintenance of web sites. Recently, two sites needed revision, but the passwords for the sites was lost. There is a program offered by SecurityXploded called WS_FTP Password Decryptor, that is in a zip file. It allows the decrypting of all site passwords of sites, provided one has the original WS_FTP ini file.
 
After downloading the program I tried unpacking it, but my anti-malware/anti-virus pr ogram (Webroot SecureAnywhere) sclaims that the file is potential dangerous, and gives the following name of the problem: "W32.Malware.MI.vt" (The "I" next to the M, may be an I or i. My vision is bad, and I can't tell the difference on the monitor.
 
In any event, does anybody know what that alert means specifically? I used manual scanning of the file, and the result was its removal from the medium it was stored on.
 
Any help would be  greatly appreciated!

Hello John and Welcome to the Webroot Community!
 
With something like this it would be best to Submit a Support Ticket so they can look at the file in question.
 
Thanks,
