Not knowing what AV product you're using, I'd trust their software more than the "support" department of some piece of software I don't know.
While virus scanners are known to sometimes produce false positives, they do so less often than criminals setting up companies in order to distribute malware that looks legitimate.

If it was this - hxxp://www.flvto.biz/youtube-downloader/ - then the alert was likely for PUA (Potentially Unwanted Application) as the installer is bundled with OpenCandy.
As long as you were careful during the installation and opted out of any other software you were offered, then you have nothing to worry about.
