Hi,

In the last few days, I've received a rash of spam messages promoting photos
of Britney Spears.  My guess is that the messages are being used to spread
malware.  Here's a link from one of the messages:

   http:// mainemodularandmanufacturedhomes.com/ images/ indexxx.html

I haven't visited the page myself, since it might be using .ANI security
flaw to break into people's systems.  

Does anyone know what's up here?

Richard
