I received some e-mails about two weeks ago from some mail servers that
had bounced some messages that *seemed* to originate from me. I never
sent the messages in the first place, and since I'm running Linux, I
seriously doubt I'm infected :). Apparently this worm likes to send
emails under other people's names. That's a good way to make it
difficult to find the 'real' infected machine, not to mention get people
angry at each other! Just don't freak out if you get one of these
messages bounced to you--it may mean someone else is infected and has
your name in his/her addressbook.
Apparently it's pretty virulent on campus here, too.
