>The CIAC of the Dept. of Energy has verified the existence of a program that

>can get something for nothing. Currently, the program appears under the
>name "AOL4FREE.COM." This is not the same software that AOL saturates the

>download or execute any attachment that you may receive that resembles this
>description. Another clue is that the program is ridiculously short (993
>bytes--not KB) for what it claims to do.
