Don't know about MAGIC, but FLY_EX is a .PRG by Meinolf Schneider that seems
to do nothing when you start it (great for other people's AUTO folder).
After a few minutes, though, a fly starts flying over the screen, perhaps even
lands on the desktop and eats a pixel. Without docs you can only watch it 
helplessly, but.... 


there is a possibility to kill this fly. (try the right mouse button)


Though this program is not that useful, it's lot of fun to hunt the fly, 
because the damn beast reacts on mouse moves and gets more and more nervous.
