From here on out if you recieve an email from Storm2k.org that tells you anything besides the newsletter has arrived or you have a private message

IGNORE IT OR DELETE IT UNLESS THERE IS AN ANNOUNCEMENT ON THE MESSAGE BOARD THAT WE ARE SENDING EVERYONE SOME SORT OF SOFTWARE.

Marshall, Chad and I will have ALWAYS consulted about any software for tracking, etc. before we would send anything out.

I have not spoken with Admin about this and they may feel free to retract this, but after the BS today this is the policy I intend to use.

I received three of them..the subject line started with "New software downlo(ads)..."

Fortunately, these came in under my "Junk Mail" folder, which I always delete immediately.

If anyone like myself ran the stormtracker.exe file, and if you are running nt, win2k, xp. Open task manger and kill the stormtracker.exe process. Even though it seems like the file is not doing anything it is running resident in memory until you kill the process. From what I can tell it looks like some type of logging program. I have no idea what it is logging.
