What's With The German Spam?

Apparently it's the remants from the Sober P virus, which is sending around these e-mails. The e-mails don't spread the virus, but the virus is a programmed propoganda tool used to send right-wing German messages to millions of computers. Great, so now spam is a scam tool and a tool for folks to send their messages of hate to millions of people. Lovely...

More information on the BBC.
