Sophos has warned Harry Potter fans not to open an e-mail which claims to contain the final instalment of the boy wizard book series.

Security companies have intercepted an e-mail promising a copy of 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows'-- which is not due for release until July 21. But rather than getting a sneak preview of the book, impatient muggles who click on the file will instead find their PC infected by the W32/Hairy-A worm.
