Symantec Endpoint Protection reports a virus with SharpE 0.8 RC2 Setup.exe (source: http://sourceforge.net/projects/sharpe/files/SharpE%200.8/ )
I'm going to guess this is a false positive, but it's there, crashed Firefox while downloading the file from deletion by cleaning.
After disabling and extracting the .exe via 7zip, found it's the exact file "Explorer.dll"

The sounds of it, I believe it is infact a false positive as the broad description of this is the intended purpose of the software.
