Dear Amazon.com Customer,
As someone who's shown an interest in books and magazines for women, you might like to know that you can now get $5.00 off a subscription to O, the Oprah Magazine.

[EDIT]
So my brother managed to download Windows PC Defender, which told him he had multiple Trojans and omg you should totally pay here to get rid of them. Here is a hint: DON'T.
An hour and a half later and I've called the WinVista command prompt all kinds of nasty things, and I still can't take ownership of the files to delete them. Hoping John can do something about it, but doubting it, since the last time anything like this came up I'm pretty sure he swore and gave up faster than I did. In fact, I pretty distinctly remember "[C:\] FUCK".
The point here is, people: if you don't know what it is, don't click on it. If you don't recognise it, Google it and find out what it is. This thing won't let him open Firefox or IE; the only browser working is Google Chrome. (Bless its little rainbow-coloured socks.)
Especially don't discover these things five minutes after Your Sister the Apparently-Tech-Support has gone to bed.
