I got that, including the attachment in one of my mailboxes this morning.  I reported it to myway.com as spam and put a blocker on it. Of course as is my habit, if I don't recognize the sender it goes in the dumper. Incidently the addy was @yahoo.com, which was likely just a remial.

Add this to the many other costs that businesses (actually you and me) are paying to deal with MS's ineptitude.

So MS thinks this is going to solve the problem.
