Attack of the Salmonbots

[pugfantus]

Don't know if you all remember me posting about the SalmonBots a while back... but I was hit again... and being annoyed as I was (especially at the boldness of the message, used to just be "hey, what's up? how are you, do you like music?" blah!)), I did some googlin to see if anyone had found some countermeasures for it. Well, lo-and-behold, wikipedia to the rescue!
