Default SuperUser Latest Update

Hi all,

Just try to update the latest SuperUser from Market, and a virus was detected by AVG AntiVirus and removed the update.

Did anyone update without getting a virus?

Vibrant on Trigger 3.2 + Bali 1.8.4

Just my theory, maybe because it's an app that requires root that's why the ant-virus is detecting it as a bad app.
