It seems that Yahoo is altering the content of email that passes through their servers. Rather than being smart and actually looking for code snippets, they're just taking words used in attack code and replacing them; even if the word is in a sentence. An example is replacing eval with review. This has resulted in a number of sites having the word "medireview" in place of "medieval". http://www.newscientist.com/news/news.jsp?id=ns99992546 http://www.ntk.net/2002/07/12/ According to one site, this is only done in the HTML portion of an email message. As the HoF server strips that portion out and only uses plain text, we should have totally unaltered words here. http://www.ntk.net/2002/07/12/yahoo.txt
