[Spambayes] SPAMfighter Disaster

[Tim Stone]

It looks legit, but it's offerred as a free download on many sites.  
Perhaps you got it from a counterfeit site.  If I were a spammer, I'd 
disguise myself as a spam-fighting tool, spam the world to get them to 
download my tool, suck their addressbook out and have a golden spam 
list  LOL.  Fortunately, I'm not a spammer.  And the Spambayes project 
has nothing to do with SpamFighter.  You probably need to contact them 
directly.  Their site is www.spamfighter.com.
