I'd never even heard of it until well after the 1.0 release of SpamBayes.
Google searches seem to suggest it's used for nefarious purposes.

Maybe everyone with a procmail setup should set up a "vacation" message
which responds once to anyone who sends them an email via Incredimail
alerting them to its potential dangers.

If we can confirm that it is a spyware delivery vehicle maybe we should
tweak SpamBayes so it refuses to work with it, even if it's technically
possible.  Just an idle thought from a cranky, sleep-deprived guy on a rainy
Wednesday morning in Chicago.
