yes you should. This is a common mistake anti virus sometimes takes srl as a Trojan or a root kit

Thats weird, only AVG used to say that it was a virus. Maybe with the update it is more widespread.

It's not a trojan horse. AVG has flagged at least 2 SRL files for being a trojan. None of my accounts have been stolen as-of-yet. :P

Just ensure that you only download SCAR from http://freddy1990.com/scar.php and you'll be fine.

and Only download SRL from the SRL Forums!

AVG Tends to flag some things as trojans, for me, its SRL, and a FlyFF hack that was recently patched. Unninstalling it fixed the problem. xD ( I was using the free version, cant ignore things with it...)

Its just they way that its programed which makes antivirus software think its dangerous, as laurenssie0 said just ignore it.

Just set SCAR as an "exception". Then do a full scan to your computer. It won't hurt :D
