Hi guys. I just downloaded bizhawk 1.9.2 from sourceforge and Avg detects two trojans inside it. Are they false positives?

Assuming you downloaded it from us, then yes it is a false positive.

Antivir detected libsneshawk-32-performance.exe as trojan. libsneshawk-32-compability.exe should be detected as well.

It is simply a false positive. But it will be "fixed" in the next release. Just reordering a few lines of code was enough to make the result come out clean on VirusTotal.
