Political Disease

Some people who've gotten e-mail from me in the last few months have been hit by a barrage of German spam. This is extremely strange -- I get no German spam, and I never open weird attachments -- but Sober.Q is an epidemic in western Europe, and right now it's spreading right-wing propaganda with the idea of swaying an election in North Rhine-Westphalia. Here's a technical description. When I find e-medication I'll post that, too.

UPDATE: OK, so maybe I'm not the source of this virus on certain computers in California. But I'd like to remind everyone that Radio Free Mike gets hilarious and insightful reader commentary, every day of the week.
