	Anybody else get this?  Looks legit, originating address is from
msnbc.com.  But can't believe even Microsoft would be this stupid after
the rash of trojan-attached "patch announcements" lately.  Plus all
security people have been saying that Microsoft would never email a
patch out.  Or are they thinking, "Send this out so all the stupid
people will click on this before they click on a real trojan?
