Matters of viral interest

[Spyder]

I've been getting an arseload of emails with viruses attached. Someone on either ASVS or SDnet is infected with a virus.

On the virus, I've read up on it and Sobig spoofs 'From' Address's using a
name from the infected computers E-mail system. Whoever got infected had me
in thier Address book and the virus chose my E-mail addy to attach to the
messages. Whoever it is, they live in the South of the US - CableLynx
services Alabama, Mississippi Arkansas and Texas. As I don't have a record
of someone with a CableLynx connection they probably mailed me through
Hotmail or Yahoo but it's likely someone from ASVS or SD.net if they have
both our E-mail addy's - you might want to post a warning on both that
someone with a CableLynx.com connection and both of our E-mail addy's in
thier address book has a Sobig.F infection on their machine (I would but I
still can't get a News reader to connect reliably through NTLworld right
now) and needs to get it cleaned out soon, they can find out how from the
CableLynx.com Website if they're unsure what to do.

I've recieved E-mails that purported to be from a random ASVSer. I know I'm clean: I run Linux.
