Yoomba: viral application, or VIRUS???

These guys put in this cute little feature where after install, it brings up a screen to add contacts. If you don't read carefully (or maybe even if you do ... I can't seem to get back to the screen) it SPAMs all of your freaking contacts!!!

Looks to me like it's just another IM / VOIP client, but with an auto-add-all-your-contacts-and-SPAM-them "feature".
