Default PC Gamer Magazine... (virus alert)

My wife recently sent me a copy of PC Gamer magazine. I dont usually get this magazine but she is away on vacation and sent it to me thinking I might enjoy it.

So last night I put the dvd into the drive to see whats on it. Hrm.. a demo for Mount and Blade a driving sim and several indie titles.

Oh well its late no use in getting into something new and staying up all night.

So I fire up the virus scan and go to bed. This morning I noted the machine was still running (AV is supposed to shut down if nothing is found). I look and there is a stern warning as to a trojan virus, could not be deleted or quarintined (sp?) and had to be manually delt with. So I check the path and there it is in the indie games folder of the DVD something called Draculachacha.

Probably is a false positive though the filename crc was quite specific so just a heads up.

Hope it is a false postive for the magazines sake.
