While sitting on a myspace page it changes to:

Any one brave tonight. I'm going to bed not feeling like playing.

Wget on Linux is the easy way ;-)

It's a fake up page to make it look like you have an infection. The  
"magic" for downloading on the page itself is:
     function doStartDownload() {
      window.location="http://dlsgd3.com/spygd08/install.php?track_id=10219";;

      return;
     }
     <div class="errors_d"><a onclick="javascript:doStartDownload();return  
false;" href="#"><img src="/images/sg1/error_detected.gif" alt=""  
/></a></div>

So not very sneaky, as you get the a conventional download box. I'm not  
really a malwarey type person, but the install for dlsgd3.com doesn't look  
fluffy. It just seems to try social engineering, by trying to look like an  
official MS message, so not much of a threat!
