I went looking for more documentation on Powershell on Google. The string that I used was "guide powershell" It came back with Download details: Windows PowerShell 1.0 Documentation Pack <http://thesource.ofallevil.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=B4720B00 -9A66-430F-BD56-EC48BFCA154F&displaylang=en> <http://www.siteadvisor.com/sites/ofallevil.com?ref=safesearch&client_ve r=FF_26.5_6256&locale=en-US&premium=false&aff_id=0> Documentation of Windows PowerShell 1.0, which includes the Windows PowerShell Getting Started Guide, the Windows PowerShell Primer, the Windows PowerShell ... thesource.ofallevil.com/.../details.aspx?FamilyId=B4720B00-9A66-430F-BD5 6-EC48BFCA154F&displaylang=en - 31k - Note the URL. Not having had my 2nd cup of coffee, and also trusting McAfee's SiteAdvisor(tm) , I clicked on it. The result looks surprisingly like a Microsoft site. The URL doesn't. Anyone know more about "ofallevil.com". Whois shows it in Bellevue, WA, but it is privacy protected. http://thesource.ofallevil.com/en/us/default.aspx looks very Microsoft. http://www.ofallevil.com/ returns a blank page.

Did you expect to receive this? Do you recognize and work with the other addressees? If not, then you probably received this in error. Please, be respectful and courteous, and delete it immediately. Please, don't forward it to anyone. Now, wasn't that simple. Just, if you had made an error in a sensitive email, and I received it, what would you want me to do with it?
