 * Hi,
 * I have found an options.php file in the assets folder on a website.
 * This file was added by a hacker and made the website send out thousands of emails.
 * Now, this _might not_ have something to do with your plugin, however, please 
   double check the plugin for any security holes.
 * Sincerely,
    Mika
