I checked Symantec's and McAfee's virus site for the file and turned up
empty. It's not a virus or an abortive attempt at one. And a search of
www.securityfocus.com came up empty. If you are running squid, it came up in
a recent Linux Advisory Watch(7/29/01). If you search for squid on
securityfocus, it comes up. Now to figure out how it got there.
