Exclamation ES Screen Saver on Lexus.Com is Spyware!

I installed the ES 350 screen saver after downloading it from Lexus.com. The first time it ran, the bells and whistles went off and Spyware Doctor popped up with the following message.

------------------------------------------------------

Keylogger Guard Events
Details - Keylogger Guard has detected the following Keylogger program recording your keystrokes.
Blocked - c:\windows\system32\es_screensaver.scr

------------------------------------------------------

Lexus' screensaver was recording my keystrokes! Spyware Doctor disabled and quarantined it after which I removed it via Control Panel.

I reported this to Lexus but yesterday but have not received a reply as of today.

Interesting.

Thanks for the heads up. Maybe they got hijacked?
