Spammers find a new channel

If you get strange windows popup messages appearing, it is possible you have received a new form of spam that is being sent using the windows message service (not to be confused with MSN Messenger). The system uses the system alerts that sys admins use to send messages that the server is going down (see “net send” from the command line). http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/4/27634.html
