Tried to download the files needed to run Cumulus and Weathercloud and the .exe file was flagged by my AVG

Has anyone seen this?

From where? Are you on legit sites?

Right from their sign-up page. Went to get the files I need with their link. Downloaded it 3 X caught every try.

This time I used (mirror) and all is well....The zip folder itself is the one that set off my AVG...strange

Nope it's still setting off my AVG

I downloaded it from the mirror site. AVAST doesn't see it as a virus.

This had been mentioned before and determined to likely be a "False Positive" http://sandaysoft.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=11998&p=110965&hilit=weathercloud#p110965

That is a third party addition for sending to Weathercloud using Cumulus 1. Cumulus MX has the Weathefrcloud upload built in so that third party program is not needed.
