Subject: $25K Prize for the first OS X virus.

Hrmm why do I see this statement as a problem?

Your virus may be put into general circulation on the internet. Or, it 
may be sent by email to virus@...orge.com. Both machines will pull email 
from this POP account at least once per day, and, those emails will all 
be opened each day.
