Recieved an e-mail at work, from someone one I know, and the office virus scanner flagged it as the file CFGWIZ32.EXE had the virus PE_Magistr.A in it. They did not knowingly send it. Just FYI (a plot by the agents of King George III, perhaps???).

Thanks for the warning as I received it at work and thought it looked suspect so deleted without opening it. BTW it also seemed to slip by our network McAfee virus scan which was just updated last week so it's new enough not to be detected yet. Everyone should update their virus signature file asap before this one gets out of the bag.
