from Carl Worth:

just a warning, since i know this is one of the most widely read threads on SI:

i received an email a few days ago warning of fake e-greeting card announcements being sent out to cause people to install spyware on their computer...today i received an email that said in part:

You have received a postcard from a family member!

If you can‘t click on the web address above, you can also
visit 1001 Postcards
postcards.org and enter your pickup code, which is: a91-valets-cloud-mad
Oh -- and if you‘d like to reply with a postcard, you can do so by visiting this web address:
www2.postcards.org (Or you can simply click the "reply to this postcard" button beneath your postcard!)
Regards, 1001 Postcards
postcards.org

the link below this text was to a program, as it ended in .exe

hopefully most people would know not to click on the link, as they would see the .exe at the end of it, but just in case some might not think to check it before clicking on it, perhaps this warning will cause them to check first, and not get the spyware

now back to your regularly scheduled programming
