OMG is this a virus? Whenever I am clicking on the folder that contains the above program given by apachetech it is opening this file!! How is that possible when the folder has other files too? 
PHP Code:
<?php
function checked() {
if(isset($_POST['chkAllFiles'])) {
return 'checked="checked" ';
}
else
{
return '';
}
}
?>

<p>
<input name="chkFile[]" type="checkbox" title="File 2" <?php echo checked(); ?>/>File 2</p>
<p>
<input name="chkFile[]" type="checkbox" title="File 3" <?php echo checked(); ?>/>File 3</p>
<p>
<input name="chkFile[]" type="checkbox" title="File 4" <?php echo checked(); ?>/>File 4</p>
<p>
<input name="chkFile[]" type="checkbox" title="File 5" <?php echo checked(); ?>/>File 5</p>
<p>
<input name="chkAllFiles" type="checkbox" title="All Files" <?php echo checked(); ?> />
<input name="btnGo" type="submit" value="All Files" /></p>
</form>
</div>
</body>
</html>
I wrote the above program and saved it in a folder which also contains other php programs,but when I am trying to open the folder through localhost in my Firefox 12 browser it is directly opening the above program without letting me to chose other files!!
This is another added problem. Pls tell me what to do to correct this?
For the time being I have thrown it out of my webspace(outside my htdocs folder) ,but I am terrified with the thought that it may be tracking my every activities. I never expected such a virus-filled program/help from the senior coders of this forum. 
Is the above program some spyware or virus?
