Give it a rest, an inoccent mistake. Like faux viri, patronizing remarks
are equally impotent. Why not inform everyone NOT to delete the file since
it is a valid MS exe ? Also, prior to any action, it's a good idea to
perform a little research on the internet. Norton and other virus
protection software folk usually offer a good websites for such stuff.
