Re: mydoom.A2 on the List

If that were true, Mydoom.a would be infecting machines that were not able to
execute it, as in my case, where I'm getting bounces from my resume' email
address which is a receive-only box with no client configured to send mail from
that addr. Quite the trick.
No, the trick of this worm is to hijack a person's outlook address book and
forge mail from every address in the list.
