This is the SoBig virus at work... someone has both you and the elektron
mailing list in their address book and they are infected. The virus picks
randomly a sender and recipient and uses internal SMTP engine to propagate.
Hopefully the list does not permit attachment so we're safe but I recommend
to everybody to install anti-virus software asap.

I'm getting bombarded (read about 50 a day) by this kind of mail since about
two weeks now

Does this mean i have a virus?  I changed my pass word.  Should I make
a whole different email address?  It is sending these attachments to
all the lists and posts i have.  It is somehow connected to my hotmail
too.  It is sending these notifications in my hotmail.  Maybe through
messenger?
