Hello,
I've heard about and read various web-based notes about
the illicit use of "spyware" loaded on a user's machine (without their
knowledge or consent) to spy on them. For more info about this, click
on the link below. As I'm typing this Email, I have downloaded,
installed, and running a free SpyHunter software onto my home PC.
Imagine my surpise when I found out, by viewing the results of running
SpyHunter, that:
2 Spyware programs stored in RAM;
140 stored in my registry;
256 web browser cookies(both Netscape Communicator v4.8 and Microsoft
Internet
Explorer v6.0.2800.1106);
and 14 files stored among my files!
Well, the SpyHunter spyware detection program is free. However, to
delete the detected spyware requires you to purchase the full software
version. Click on(or copy and paste) the link below to learn more
about SpyHunter - by Enigma Software Group.

************* IMPORTANT NOTICE ************
Important note to you folks whose PCs are on a local
area network (LAN) where you work.
Do not install the Spyware software onto your work PC until you have
been authorized to do so by your LAN Administrator who is managing
your LAN where you work! Please forward this message to your work
location LAN administration to get his (or her) guidance regarding the
issue of using the Spyware software.
************** End of Important Notice ************
In closing, you may want to forward this message to your office IT
division to get their comments regarding the issue of Spyware.
Best Regards and Happy Holidays,
-Warren-
