        Ok... at first I thought it was spam, or some sort of scam to get one to
click through to a porn page. I investigated it for that very reason.

        I checked all the pulled-up pages for malicious or address-harvesting
code, and was unable to find any. Upon clicking through to the last page,
the photo pulled up is a very well-done digital shot of what looks like a
young ape (darned if I can identify the species).

        What it amounts to is one colossal joke. Somebody Out There has a very
twisted sense of humor.

        Though I really do have to wonder how many people would actually fall for
the idea that their monitor can go both ways...
