Hi,
I believe the 'Patch' URL was meant to be;
http://%36%32%2E%35%32%2E%31%36%32%2E%31%34%37/hicagogppr
Looks like they forgot to add the 'gogppr' to the end of the URL.
By the sounds of the e-mail, and the size of the 'patch,' I'd presume that
the e-mail is talking about the W32.Magistr.24876@mm virus.
By the way, I scanned it (a copy of the self-replacating virus was sent to
our mail server) with a 2 week old NAV signature, so you might want to
actually update yours.
