Free Download Manager False Positive?

Recommended Posts

Free Download Manager installed on Windows OS PC.

According to Virus total it is OK.

fdm5_x64_setup.exe scanned with MBAM, the result is OK.

ADW Cleaner indicates:
==========
***** [ Tasks ] *****

PUP.Adware.Heuristic            C:\Windows\System32\Tasks\FreeDownloadManagerNetworkMonitor

***** [ Registry ] *****

PUP.Adware.Heuristic            HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Schedule\TaskCache\Boot\{B2A971C4-CF1E-4D3E-B13C-D4CA1AE3EBA9}
PUP.Adware.Heuristic            HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Schedule\TaskCache\Tasks\{B2A971C4-CF1E-4D3E-B13C-D4CA1AE3EBA9}
PUP.Adware.Heuristic            HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Schedule\TaskCache\Tree\FreeDownloadManagerNetworkMonitor
==========

Is that False Positive?

Thank you in advance.

The problem is solved, I suspect. ADW Cleaner has noticed a file at Tasks (\Windows\System32\Tasks\FreeDownloadManagerNetworkMonitor) and seen it as PUP.Adware.Heuristic.
I deleted that file and now ADW Cleaner reports:

***** [ Tasks ] *****
No malicious tasks found.
