New Reason to avoid unsubscribe links

• Spammers are beginning to sneak special code into
  opt-out link that turns the spam recipient's
  computer into a zombie that can be used to send
  out more spam.
• By clicking on an unsubscribe link you have the
  risk of downloading a Trojan that turns your
  computer into an open proxy for sending spam.
• Other variations place keystroke loggers on
  victims computers, allowing the spammer to
  collect personal information (including passwords
  and financial account data).

• How Does this make you feel?
• Since the opt-out links are required by law, is
  it safe to say that the law has backfired?
