spyware threat?

This email was just circulated on a music list to which I belong. I don't think the claim has much merit, but since he mentions the Den, I figured better to be on the safe side.

"anyone hear of spy falcon? i think after a few hours of screwing around
and running some various different stuff, i got it cleaned up. i am
pretty sure i picked it up thru viewing the traders den site with
firefox. it really jacked everything up though, like i couldn't change
my desktop wallpaper and some other things got really weird. after some
registry fixes things seem to be back to normal now. i got one a long
while back called xupiter too, these things just suck the way the
overtake your computer! do mac users and linux users have these problems?"
