sobig.f virus
Hello All,
Has anyone here been hit by the sobig.f virus?
I don't think I've been infected. My e-mail service blocked the first infected e-mail attachment that I tried to open, and I've deleted each message ever since. I looked up the virus on the internet, and searched my computer for any files that the virus may have installed. I did not find any questionable files.
I say that I "THINK" that my computer is not infected. I've received some e-mail messages from people and companies whose e-mail client or server says that it received an infected e-mail message from my address. Maybe one out of every 30 or 40 virus-related messages are like this. Being that other people or companies seem to be receiving [occasional] infected e-mail from my address, could this mean my address is "slightly" infected?
Although I "think" that I am not infected by the sobig.f virus, I definitely am affected by it. I've probably received and deleted 150 or so infected e-mail messages.
Anybody else affected, and to what extent?
