Yup.  It's sitting there at the bottom of the source code for that page.
But instead of McAfee picking it up, I get a browser opening looking for
"http://www.microsoft.com/frontpage/readme.eml"; which wasn't found.

I just went to http://www.microsoft.com/frontpage, and my Symantec
Norton Antivirus popped up and denied access to readme.eml.

I could not view the source of the loaded page, so I can't verify that
it is definitely infected.
