Why on God's green earth would you CC this list with this. You've sent email to an address that probably doesn't even get looked at.
And now you've spammed 1000's of people on this list. *shakes head*

This guy is giving me lots of pain indirectly. It infects your computer, looks in your addressbook, forges a email from someone in said book. If said email bounces due to a virus scanner finding the virus, and it was forged to look like it came from me, I GET THE BOUNCED EMAIL from those damnable scanners!
Please clean up your PCs, I've gotten 200+ copies today alone (direct infected emails, and mails bounced by the virus scanners ).
Note that it IS a windows virus. I run Linux, I'm immune. If you see any virii supposedly coming from me, it DIDN'T. It forged the headers to make it look so.
I've been getting hundreds of emails from M$ the last 2 days, including system notices, exe's and bounced emails from msn. I did visit a M$ website a couple days ago. Any idea if I'm getting spammed by M$, or could this be the virus being discussed? If I am getting spammed, does anyone know how to get a hold of someone at M$ that can fix it? I've spent hours and hours going through their site and can't find a contact other than product support.
