NSIS - False Positives?

[John259]

I've got NSIS installed (Nullsoft Scriptable Install System).

MS AntiSpyware lists the following NSIS files as being
malicious:

C:\Program Files\NSIS\Plugins\Math.dll
C:\Program Files\NSIS\Plugins\nsis.dll
C:\Program Files\NSIS\Plugins\nsisdll.dll

While NSIS could be used to create malicious software, I
don't think NSIS itself could be categorised as being
malicious. So is it safe to assume that these alerts are
false positives? If so, is there any chance of this
situation being corrected in the future please?

Also, is there a confusion with NSIS in the "Next Steps in
Signaling" protocol sense, maybe?

I'd greatly appreciate any comments.

John
