Once you agree to the license, it spams everyone in your address book inviting them to download the viri. Details on one such Virus HERE. McAfee has told our company it will not block this virus (and won't classify it as a virus) due to the license agreement.

here's link to McAfee & what they say about it!

SCUMWare, certainly, but a virus??? - well, if they classify anonymous mailers - eg. GhostMail, as a security risk/undesirable, then this surely is!

If the virus companies don't re-classify this, it could get very scary out there on the internet....I may have to start reading Eula's arrrrhhhhhh!

Just a note. You May want to read Eula's. Definatly with Microsoft OEM Products. It will cause you ALOT less pain in the future.
