[mrtg] Re: Mrtg you have an E-Card from .

Just in case anyone's missed it -

Don't download (or at least don't install) the FriendGreetings.com software.
Reports (as noted above) have been coming in that the software in question
includes provisions in a "license agreement" such that, in effect, when
you install the software, you've *authorized* the use of your computer to
spam everyone in your Outlook mailbox; there are as-yet unconfirmed
reports that it does some portscanning as well.
