I would be very upset if I installed a piece of software that sent the
author the address of my machine, as well the kernel info enclosed below. I
think it's sneaky and ill-advised at BEST.  The worst part is your failure
to disclose the spyware prior to being caught red-handed, which speaks
volumes about your ethics. Is there a sinister motive here? I honestly doubt
it, but even so, you can bet I won't ever be installing any pkg's from your
site.

Michael - how did you notice the message home? Nice work. And BTW, you owe
me an email!
