One last point, the two e-mail addresses you mentioned, are most likely spoofed (since sobig.F spoofs the from address). Take a look at http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/[EMAIL PROTECTED] sometime.

I am using a combination of Norton, Trend Micro, AVG and Benign. AVG can be gotten for free, though I use the registered version. Benign is a wonderful program that just came out that neutralizes any suspicious mail. It can be secured from www.firetrust.com. There is a 15 day trial on it and then you have to buy the program. McAfee has a good program. I am using XP at the moment, but also have Lindows installed. I have the Mandrake 9.0 as well, but it is not installed at the moment. Having gotten a number of viruses from the Newbie list, I am surprised because I thought Linux was pretty much impervious to viruses. I don't know which of the above programs can be used with Linux.
