It would be pretty stupid of me to download a file that Chrome and Windows Defender both identified as a trojan based on one sarcastic forum post.
To answer your second question regarding my proof. Generally I don't have any - I was only commenting on the post (or rather two of them) because both were only stating one anti virus program and none of any other users (obviously running other programs) did have any problems. What I want to say with so many words here (to prevent being misunderstood) is simple: don't let ONE anti virus alert let you panic. Get other opinions as well. To do this sites like virustotal.com where invented.
I just scanned the link and got a 1/64 hit of it containing malware.
