Im getting these messages in my yahoo mail at least 3 a minute, half are titled something stupid like "I love you!", and the other half are "Mail Delivery (failure myemailaddy@yahoo.com)" All with attachments 40 or 41k in size. Yahoo detects it as w32.netsky.p@mm and disables downloading of the attachment so im not at any danger here, but theyre going to fill up my quota overnight and if i get any real mail (bills, other important stuff) it wont go thru.
Is there anything I can do besides change my email addy?
Will this stop anytime soon?
and while im pissed off, WTF is the deal with viruses??? why do people write them?? I can understand the [fvcked up] logic of attacking one person, or phishing for info, or even gaining access to random peoples' systems. But why go thru the time and effort and waste your own machine power to massively spam people that have email services that wont let viruses be downloaded anyways?
