Thanks for that report. Usually I program under Linux but yesterday I
installed OCaml MinGW on WindowsXP with Avira running and I got the
same alert while installing and running OCaml.

Today I used the online scanner VirusTotal in order to double-check.
They run 38 different scanners and only AntiVir and SecureWeb-Gateway
reported a problem. Thus I believe this might be a false positive.
Here is there result:
