strange .lnk file in email.

I recieved an .lnk file in my inbox just a few minutes ago.

Since I didn't know this person, and since I don't use a Windows
product to check my email, I decided to look at it.

I ran strings on the .lnk file and got a lot of stuff.  I posted
it on the web, if anyone is interested.  I didn't want to take
up a lot of list space to post it.

Please take a gander and tell me whether I'm right in thinking
this is a trojan of some kind.

Thanks,
JJ

Freedom is an all-or-nothing proposition:  either we 
are completely free, or we are subjects of a
tyrannical system.  If we lose one freedom in a
thousand, we become completely subjugated.
