"Suspicious Win32 PE, perhaps a new virus!"
(PE EXE files = portable executables)
Pressing "Web Club" within the virus alert launches IE on this link:

The file that it is all about:
$ ls -l /bin/ncurses-test-dll/ncurses.exe
... 74752 Mar 9 22:00 /bin/ncurses-test-dll/ncurses.exe*
$ md5sum /bin/ncurses-test-dll/ncurses.exe
25bffd324f64e34364ef0c47f275a538 */bin/ncurses-test-dll/ncurses.exe
$ strings /bin/ncurses-test-dll/ncurses.exe
< output indicates some kind of TEST software for ncurses(?) >
Can somebody verify the md5sum above? $ md5sum -b <filename>
Anobody else get a virus warning on it?
