Has anyone else noticed bounced emails that appear to have origionated from their nanog email boxes and contain viruses? Obviously some bot has gone threw the nanog list and is now forging headers such that they appear to come from those addresses, and they are attaching viruses. The IP address (which may or may not be accurate) appears to be [195.157.87.253]. Has anyone else noticed this recently?
On many lists. The latest and most annoying version of Sobig worm has hit the nets and I have gotten at least 50 copies already today. -- R.
