Hi John, I have a machine dedicated to having bad things happen to it. First glance, this installs a spyware cookie pointing to AtlasDMT.com, we'll see what else. Michael Michael Curtis Information Security Officer Law Enforcement Data System Oregon State Police 503-378-3055 x55004 >>> "Christiansen, John (SEA)" <JohnC@private> 7/31/2003 10:46:12 AM >>> Folks - I just got this v. suspicious message. My assumption is that were I to click on the link bad things would happen and my IT department would hate me (and I would hate myself), but I am curious. I have edited the link to make it ineffective - I assume most on this list wouldn't do something this dumb but don't want to be responsible for some lurker, etc. screwing up - if anybody is interested in figuring out what the point is I'd be happy to forward the original message and links off-list and would love to know your findings.
