Landr - Trojan??

I know there have been some ambivalence towards Landr, but Kaspersky has taken it to a whole new level: when I tried to run it just now, Kaspersky just intercepted it and told be it carried a trojan "with a very high degree of certainty" and then deleted LandrExport.exe 
 
From the notes:
HEUR:Trojan-Downloader.Script.Generic

    Kaspersky's Heuristic detection engine again. By it's nature (intended to provide greater/quicker detection by looking for file types, etc that are "questionable" (to the AV developers)), it will tend to throw up false alarms. It is intended to provide protection before a new virus is discovered, and a definition can be written for it and included in the regular AV protection algo.
    Mostly, it's crap.

    When LANDR was initially released within sonar and auto-installed, I ran some of the files through virus total, and got positives on several of the files.
     
    I'm not sure that it means anything, but I restored to restore point and don't want it on my system.
