[Meteor-Scatter] All: The current worm

[Shelby Ennis, W8WN]

As most of you already know, the Win32/Sobig.F@mm worm is crawling all over 
the Internet.
I have received over 60 infected messages already this morning and they're 
still coming!

Also, I am now receiving bounced messages from people not on my mailing 
list, indicating that my address is being used as the return address by the 
worm - as is many of your addresses, since I've also received infected 
messages "supposedly" from a number of people whom I know keep their virus 
protection up to date,
So it is impossible to tell at a glance whether an individual computer is 
spewing out these messages, or if that return address is simply being used 
by the worm to make it look like you are doing it.  And this particular 
virus apparently doesn't do any harm to the computers - just clogs up the 
Internet.

Moral of this story - If someone tells you that your computer is infected, 
it may or may not be.
But a *whole bunch are* infected!  If you haven't updated your virus 
protection this week, it may be too late for you!
Good luck!
