..Yes, as near as I can tell, its spyware.

I encountered this when trying to access a page on http://www.musicsonglyrics.com/. If your using FireFox, go there and check it for yourself. And if your really brave, install the plugin. Id like to see what it does. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/tongue.gif]

Old aunts used to come up to me at weddings, poking me in the ribs and cackling, telling me, "You're next." They stopped after I started doing the same thing to them at funerals.
