Finally. . .
Whoever had me in their address book and was infected with the Mytob worm seems to have finally gotten the bug out of their system. At it's peak, I was receiving about 300 emails a day with Mytob worms attached. I'm pretty good about keeping my virus detection software up to date and actually have a two machine double layer filter for virsuses, so there was never any real risk to me, but it was annoying when my daily email load jumped dramatically and hiccuped with each infected message.
So whoever you were, glad you got it cleaned up.
For the rest of you? When was the last time you scanned for viruses?
One of the worst things about having your own domain is the number of viruses and the amount of spam it attracts, not to mention getting mail that's supposed to go to the .net and .org guys and having to reply back "I think you want one of the .net or .org guys". I guess you gotta take the good with the bad though.
