Thanks Carl & Robert. However, _this_ issue has not gone away, unfortunately. (Attachment snapshot.)
Perhaps there is a setting in my AV program where I could override this. I think over the past several U2 iterations, what I've had to do is to fire up a Linux Live CD, or a laptop running eCS, make the download there, then transfer the file as necessary. I could report this to Avast! as a false positive, though I don't know how much good this will do. I would be curious to point BigEdit at VirusTotal, just to see if any other AV programs flag this. All of them will have a certain amount of (different) false positives, in the course of normal usage.
