It's a hacking tool man...

Most of them will trigger some kind of generic AV alert, if you deal 
with exploits and hacking tools a lot you should have an exclude folder.
I have used one of the ones mentioned above and it is clean.

It will still trigger your AV tho like most password 'crackers', 
exploits and security tools that you don't have to pay for.
