The new variant Mydoom.BB worm seems to be spreading fast, had an alert from F-Secure about it today, and later received an infected email (thankfully I already had the heads-up :)
MyDoom.BB appeared on February 17th, 2005. Like the previous variants, it is a mass-mailer that sends infected messages with various subject lines and body messages.
The worm's body is a Windows PE executable file compressed with the MEW executable compressor. It's most likely binary patched and repacked version of the older Mydoom variant, Mydoom.M.

i get several infected emails every sodding day! all get sanitised before they even get to me thanks to my web host, all i can say is that half of my friends must be infected and are spamming me to death without realising.
