DO NOT click the above message. I clicked it and was kidnapped by a
javascript redirect. I saw "Hungary" and a phone number appear on the
top bar of my browser and shut the window down immediately. The
newsmessage sourcecode gave "http://www.zackzack.com/mosiac/" as the new
page name. Then I saw it in another newsgroup. Just tonight this same
message appeared in the following newsgroups with these phony email
addresses:

alt.windows95     - hobbosyn@
alt.comp.freeware - pnywyxd@
alt.www.webmaster - bmkyapad@
alt.www.authoring - cediqrcd@
alt.html.webedit  - nbgdmlwh@
alt.ascii-art     - cstesuch@
comp.graphics...paint-shop-pro - alcqyorb@

These are only the few that I read! I have no idea where this link would
have taken me because I coundn't trust it to let it load. Where can this
be reported?

(I'm posting this same message to all the above newsgroups.)
