email virus? [a490143_at_hotmail.com: FVWM: MIME-Version: 1.0]

I've gotten two messages from:

a490143_at_hotmail.com

with the subject:

FVWM: MIME-Version: 1.0

that have come through the fvwm mailing list. The message has an
attached HTML file with some fairly cryptic javascript. I didn't
take the time to really get into it, but it looked like it was set
to delete files and mess with the Windows registry.

Makes me glad I don't use windows. Makes me wonder why someone would
send it to the FVWM list.
