Malware in freecommander donor 860 64bit relations on Virus Total

Before installing anything I always upload the setup file to Virus Total and the freecommander donor 860 64bit reports malware in relations tabs of Virus Total.

1)

20.50.102.62 (20.48.0.0/12)
AS 8075 ( MICROSOFT-CORP-MSN-AS-BLOCK )

2)

72.21.81.240 (72.21.80.0/23)
AS 15133 ( EDGECAST )

It's false positive or not? During compiling FC it's possible some malware injected some malicious code in the FC?

Thanks for your patience and happy holidays.

Both exe files were created in 2011 and have been there all the time since then.
These are just utilities that can also be deleted.
FCWinERedirect.exe: Tools -> Redirect Win+E to FreeCommander
FCSFXStub.exe: -> used if the zip option "Create self extracting archive" is active

According to VirusTotal there is only one report from a more obscure Vendor.
No need to delete anything from the FC files.
