Naw, it's the supposed "supermarket to the world", yet another
corporate agricultural/food middleman.

Hey, now, Northern CA is getting some weather. Snow up here today.
Voluminous rain droppings at the lower levels, snow on the mountain
roads. Imagine Hwy 29 over Mt. St. Helena - of course, it's closed
today, due to cars sliding all over the road, and off.

Be on your guard for a web site called FriendGreetings.com which is
allegedly responsible for incorporating some type of Spyware software into
their greeting cards.
Basically: if you use this web site to send a friend a greeting card, you're
also sending your friend a nasty piece of software (Spyware) without them
knowing about it, in all probability.
Thought you would like to be warned about this. The holidays are here again
and as usual there are people out there on the Internet trying to take
advantage of that fact. Don t get caught up in this one. Have a great and
safe holiday.
Those cute little electronic greeting cards you occasionally get from
friends may be a real problem: one of those where there's a link that says,
[Some Name] has sent you a greeting card. Go here to get your greeting card'
There's a new card company called 'FriendGreetings.com'. When you get a card
notification from them and click on the link, it will take you to their site
You will be notified that you have to install an ActiveX control in order
to view the card. When you begin to install, the first thing that pops up is
what is known as a "EULA" (End User License Agreement).
It is very long and you will not read it. They're counting on that. When you
scroll to the bottom of it and click "Accept," you have agreed to the terms
of the EULA. Part of what you will have agreed to is to have [an alleged]
monitoring/spyware software component installed on your computer which will
periodically report a vast array of data back to the card company. The other
part that you've agreed to is to have the software send mail to every single
address in your address book.
Since there is no virus in the email, and since you've voluntarily agreed to
install the ActiveX component, anti-virus programs will not catch this. DO
NOT OPEN EMAIL ATTACHMENTS when you are not expecting them, and to be safe,
[it is recommended that you] DO NOT RUN ANYTHING FROM THE INTERNET WHICH
REQUIRES A EULA AGREEMENT.
See:
http://news.zdnet.co.uk/story/0,,t269-s2124528,00.html "
I searched Google for FriendGreetings.com
I did a search on Google which queried FriendGreetings.com and spyware on
the same line. It appears that there's lots of other sites that are talking
about it.
Anyway, just be careful.
