I am getting slammed by viruses today.  I have had at least 150 emails today
to an email address that is hosted by somebody else but which identifies me
(I am the editor of an online newsletter and they're mostly going to that
address).  It is the SoBig worm and, while I'm running a mac and multiple
checks of my system are clean, I'm concerned that I might be spoofed and
might piss off my readers/writers/possible clients.

The last time we talked about viruses on this listserv, a link was made to
an article on spoofing worms/viruses, and I read it but am suddenly
motivated to REALLY be able to explain these things (in case it makes a
writer/reader/potential client mad at me).

Can anyone give me that link again?
