Apparently some enterprising spammers are now experimenting with delivering
spam via the netbios messaging protocol (i.e. winpopup) so that the message
comes up on the user's screen in a dialog box.  It doesn't get through
firewalls, but they're more interested in the home user than corporate users
anyway.
