It is a false positive, and quite common, you need to report it to the AV 
company to get it resolved. you can also scan you exe using virustotal.com

Possible Reaons for false positive -
* compressing the exe using a exe complressor
* downloading files from internet and opening them without user consent
* using some kind of trial schemes
* working with memory directly

you need to find out the code which is causing the problem, rewrite it or 
remove it. that is the only way forward.
