That would be the SOBIG.F worm

If you will forward one of those to me as an attachment.
I can tell you what server it is coming from.
You look at the message header.  The Received from: closest to the
actual message is where it came from.  That would be a great thing to
post to the forum.. Maybe the infected person would realize it was them.

Good Luck cleaning it out.  I have no problems cleaning. But I have
battled many worms and viruses.  Just another annoying day to me.
