Uhh, dude, Sub-7 is a trojan. I hope you're not seeing this on your
Windows system, if you do you might (REALLY) want to wipe it out, like
NOW. It'll log all your key strokes (read - passwords and credit card
numbers) and makes it easy for people to spy on you, use your computer
as a carrier and... man, just do yourself a favor and wipe your system
out now!!! Check out www.2600.com and www.antionline.com for info. It's
REALLY REALLY serious.
