After installing the October MSDN, I ran Norton AntiVirus (NAV 5.02-NT), and it reported that C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\MSDN\1033\COLCHNG.EXE, contained a "Trojan Horse" virus. I submitted this to the Symantec AntiVirus Research Center (SARC), and they confirmed it. I rechecked the CD and it is also "infected".

First, can anyone else, using an alternate virus checker, confirm this? Second, anyone know what COLCHNG.EXE is used for? The only reference to this I could find was in the registry, and it indicates that PID.EXE "calls" it. I could find no reference to either .EXE in the MSDN search.
