"Downloader.Gen Trojan" means:
"antivirus detects malware that attempt to download and execute a remote executable file as:"

And yes, the goal of the ryzom_recover is to download ryzom and execute it. Anyway, in all case, you don't need to run this ryzom_recover so it's not a problem.

Downloading and executing doesn't mean it s a virus in all case, in this case, it's not the case.
