Is this a false positive? Gamma Control program and site?

I have used this program for years with no malware issues. This morning Malwarebytes is blocking the site for this program as well as the program itself as having a Trojan

The site is: https://desktopnerds.com

The notification is pasted below. Would you kindly look into this being a false positive?

thank you

It is not only that website that's flagged as  a Trojan. It is also the program I purchased from there: Gamma Control   GCV5.exe

As said above ive used the website AND that program for years with no malware alerts about those

This  single reply post will moved soon to the correct section for File FP's. Please zip and attach the file detected and the log showing its detection and attach it here. If it was quarantined, restore it to zip ti.

The file itself and its folder when scanned by Malwarebytes doesnt show any malware. Nor when scanned by Avira. Though I get same notification of website block simply by clicking on the Gamma Control exe file.

The only Malwarebytes log bout this I see are those log details I cut n pasted into my original post here...

 

I'd zip the program file if that 's actually needed but i dont have a zip program on my pc now
