Urban Legend?  I only pursued this because someone came to me all upset
becuase something had gone in and changed their home page on their system
without their consent.. and it was a porno site.  So when I noticed this
email, and went to see what it was, and found the script.  It has the same
url that my friend had mentioned.  It didn't get me since I was using
Netscape.  My friend was not so fortunate.  Urban Legend would be for
something that is a farse, and not true.  This exists.
