 I can attest to the fact that disney.com pulls that little gem.

Well, what should one expect from a Mickey Mouse company like that.  Okay, 
that is bad but I couldn't resist.

 Looks like Mydoom is using address spoofing, he said hopefully.
 bellow is part of a return I received saying my email was blocked.
 Never sent it, don't have MS on my server or computer and it wasn't
 me, so must be spoofing, right?

Yes it is, and yes I've had several of those.
If your address is harvested from an infected machine's address book it will
be used to spoof.
The bounce messages are almost as annoying as the virus IMO.
