uTorrent = Trojan?

Hi, I just did a routine spyware scan on my PC, and it showed uTorrent to be a Trojan Horse. What's the deal? Should I be alarmed? I only ever download the legit thing, and I downloaded the .exe from utorrent.com. So, why is it saying this?

Pentium 4 3.2Ghz 180GB HDD 1GB RAM

The anti-virus I am using is CA Security Center.

I don't know what uTorrent version I'm using as I'm now slightly apprehensive of opening it up. I'm slightly computer illiterate when it comes to Trojans and Viruses. Ask me anything about setting up a game server, and I'm yours. :P

Thanks!

If you got the .exe from this site, it's your security software being wrong. (most likely detecting that it is packed with UPX, and wrongfully assuming that all packed software is evil).
