It is kind sad that folk that are oblivously quite proficient at
programming do this kind of thing. But I think that Yahoo are quite
remiss at their handling of the now common virus messages.

My other e-mail accounts have been blocking this virus from reaching
my inbox (Hotmail and a few isp based ones). I know that someone with
my e-mail address has opened up one of these attachments. This virus
sometime tags your name as the sender taken from this friend's
address book. So I have had a few mails saying I've sent a message
when I haven't.

Yahoo on the other hand seem to have done nothing to block these
virus mail and so propergates the problem further. I'm getting 40-60
of these mail each day on my yahoo account and this is clearly so
with the list too.

Come Yahoo, if you are not part of the solution, you are part of the
problem.
