Well mate, there are many threats which gets undetected and one or the other antivirus fails to detect it. So if Bitdefender is detecting it, that means its either a virus or trojan. You can safely delete it.
If you are still unsure, you can upload the file to virustotal.com and scan it with more than 20+ antivirus engines.
I would have been able to answer you more clearly if you could have provided you a screenshot.
I found some forum discussions of Trojan Clicker.CM:

Hi Avinash, When I visit website
Code:
http://www.allyoulike.com
and click link "Click Here to downlod" then next page open and BitdefenderIS2010 display popup - "Bitdefender has blocked a virus. Virus Name: Trojan.Clicker.CM". I have used KasperskyIS2010 for some months. But KIS did't display any message when I visited this website. BIS is right or KIS is right not display virus message. Trojan.Clicker.CM" is a Virus or not. Who is better Bitdefender or Kaspersky?
Re: Trojan.Clicker.CM is a VIRUS or NOT?
well, Trojan clicker.VM basically Display popups containing advertises when accessing infected internet sites which may be used to steal info from your system.
So BIS may be blocking those bad popups from the site so no problems until BIS is able to block those.
Regarding Kaspersky, may be kaspersky did the blocking part in the background and didnt notified you , or may be if you use Kaspersky now, it will do the same. The reason being, these viruses and trojans keep on changing with new variants. And thats why you need updates on your antivirus software.
In short, don't worry about it. BIS is doing what it should do.
Also keep in mind, Antivirus software doesn't detect 100% of malware, trojans or viruses.
Just a advise, avoid visiting bad sites (i mean warez sites and sites which are not trusted by antivirus softwares).
