I ordered BeyondSync and when I installing F-Secure IS and Zemana Antimalware Pro warns of malicious program.
Is it a false warning or is my PC infected?

Have you uploaded it to VirusTotal? Due to the lack of explanation I cannot help.

You bought software online, without checking it's reviews?
It looks legitimate, but have you contacted F-Secure or Zemana to verify it's in fact a FP? Or check with VirusTotal results?

I contacted F-Secure and Zemana support and wait for answer.

Hello,

Thank you for your submission.

The file you submitted is indeed clean.
A database update will be released to resolve this issue.The false positive you experienced is caused by our proactive detection engine. In case you got an alert popup for a clean application, you might want to allow its execution manually.
If you are getting the "Suspicious:W32/Malware!Gemini" alert during the manual system scan or from the VirusTotal website, you might want to disable the Advanced Heuristics feature. And if certain applications are crashing or you are unable to start those applications, you might want to disable the Advanced Process Monitoring feature.

Additional information and instructions for tuning up the heuristic scanning engine can be found here:
Suspicious:W32/Malware!Gemini Description | F-Secure Labs

We apologize for any inconveniences that this false positive may have brought you. Should you have further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us again.

Best regards
Malware Analyst
F-Secure Security Labs
