Someone has already made a thread asking the same thing in this forum. Feel free to look for it as it shouldn't be more than a page or two back.

Basically, Avast has an itchy trigger finger and Minecraft isn't a virus.

Please stop posting random crap. It's annoying.

make sure your minecraft is legit from mojang, minecrafts vanilla name isnt "MineCraft.exe" its Minecraft.exe or Minecraft.jar

here's the info
http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/1679664-avast-antivirus-alert/

no need to worry, its avast erring on the side of caution, feel free to ignore that popup for the nonce and play away.
