Title: Quick Fix: Block Installation of Bogus Toolbar from Fake Google Spam
Author: Thomas Shinder
Summary: A new spam mail purports to automatically download the Google toolbar

won't get the Google toolbar but instead gets a fetid piece of scumware. This 
article describes the exploit and points you to Jim Harrison's cool tool to 
stop the scumware from infecting your users' machines.
