[HD] Virus - Worm Question

[Maynard Johnson <roguecello440@mac.com>]

I've been getting a lot of emails lately containing zip or pif files  
about 70 KB in size.  My Norton Antivirus identifiies them as  
infected, usually with a variant of the Mytob worm.

I'm posting to the list because the most recent on came from  
fbridgeway@juno.com (Is that Brett?).  Several others come from  
addresses that look familiar from the music world.  And long headers  
often do not show any indication that they come from a different  
address.  The fridgeway email, according to an internic whois search,  
originated at Embarq Corporation in Winter Park FL.

So either the worm is VERY good at spoofing addresses, or someone in  
Florida is infected and has a lot of dulcimer and folk music emails  
on their machine.
