Where you heavily spammed by the new Windows viruses today? Well, you aren’t alone. Milllions of mails with the same 9 subjects have been sent out through Sobig.F infected computers, that now have become virtual spam relay hosts.

And if that wasn’t enough, mal-configured anti virus software send out notifications that our email addresses have been used as from-addresses for these worm infected mails.

The subject lines for Sobig.F could be: Re: Thank you!, Thank you!, Your details, Re: Details, Re: Re: My details, Re: Approved, Re: Your application, Re: Wicked screensaver, Re: That movie
