Hello Hamdy,

We understand your conern.
Please be informed that the virus defnitions for each security providing company differs.
For example: The particular file might be considered as a threat by AVG whereas the same file will be considered as less harmful or not a threat at all by other antivirus company.
In your case, the oracle application file seems to be found as a threat when you searched it on virustotal.
Since you have already scanned using AVG then we recommend you to ignore this.
Thank you for uploading the file on mediafire, we request you to upload the file to us using this link: http://www.avg.com/submit-sample  for further analysis.
