I was looking at spam to add the under lying URLs to my hosts file, and some kept poppting up and not blocking u know the ones that show FAKE STOCKS, i took a look at the url and the image comes from:


http://us.f577.mail.yahoo.com/ym/us/ShowLetter?box=%40B%40Bulk&MsgId=782_0_226357_1260_12003_0_67313_16194_3587156441_oSOYkYn4Ur6Rg9euJfSMZ2XJUpXy9M8ud7zxUFO7KUwzcbtSTm2SrYQY8AUJiH94pEM5Kmz_OwKst8C.znIAhMzGEqx4q2nKbsXArCxijkQ3nR74uXI__KLF1bTMb65GYy4RYLMT28wop.ouVFWqh29x6lkgUK5WI6GQ2_uCuwU7&bodyPart=2&YY=52711&y5beta=yes&y5beta=yes&order=up&sort=date&pos=0&Idx=3

As you can see that is A LEGIT server of YAHOO.com's, and that takes you to a STOCK image (IE:fake wallstreet stock-shares, etc..) so the culprit is that either YAHOO.com is doing this purposely or someone in their or should I say SOMEONE's are using Yahoos internal server to send spam out, and defraud people of their money.
