I've already seen at least one specimen of each of these:

- PDF spam       <--- particularly nasty to detect, with "flate" compression
- MS Word spam
- PowerPoint spam
- Excel spam

I can't wait for an MPEG movie spam and a Flash movie spam...

Whose bright idea was MIME, anyway? :-)

Regards,

David.
