Hi,
i have been receiving many virus laden mails from saturday on my yahoo and 
eyeway email accounts. the virus name is  worm_nyxem.e.
It shows email address of kasha and m p w a b. Its not necessarily from them 
as many worms which auto multiply themselves change the from address while 
sending them.
so i would suggest to those who have not updated their antivirus to do so 
and then do a full scan.

thanks and regards,

Hi Vikas
That is not a true indication that mail got generator from the mentioned
ID's.
That is in case if  the virus's were at work. These virus programms pick ids
from contact list and place the from fields with from the address book.

The proper way to pin point the source is to see the property and see the
path the mail has travelled before reaching the target mail box.
Harish.
