Kat, I hope you don't mind my posting an off-topic e-mail, but I thought 
someone on this group might know the answer.

I seem to be on everyone's spam list and I get the usual barrage of ads 
for drugs, loans, Nigerian scams, etc. every day.  But lately I've gotten 
a couple new types.

The e-mails are purportedly from bluemountain.com, which is an e-card 
service with e-mail greeting cards.  It says I've received a greeting 
card.  The first time I got one I thought it was legit and clicked on the 
link in the e-mail.  I got a "404 Not Found" screen which was part of the 
website I went to (a dummy screen) and something else happened between my 
computer and the other site.  I quickly disconnected from internet and 
examined the e-mail more closely, looking at the source code, then 
reconneced and went to www.dnsstuff.com to look at where the e-mail had 
actually taken me.  As I suspected, it was some place in Wall, South 
Dakota, not Bluemountain.com.

The thing is, I have no idea what the site was set up to do.  Install 
spyware?  Harvest e-mail addresses from my computer?  Any ideas?
