Or, more-likely, just a PC run by an idiot.

Quoth the "Yaari" terms of service:

     By registering for Yaari and agreeing to the Terms of Use, you
     authorize Yaari to send an email notification to all the contacts
     listed in the address book of the email address you provide during
     registration. The email will notify your friends that you have
     registered for Yaari and will encourage them to register for the site.
     Yaari will never store your email password or login to your email
     account without your consent.  If you do not want Yaari to send an
     email notification to your email contacts, do not register for Yaari.

This "social networking" nonsense really could stand to die in a fire.
