I've been emailing back & forth with John Rogers about this thing today.

It appears that someone (or someones) on the list has contracted this
bugger:
http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.hllw.mankx@mm.html

It scans the victim's computer for e-mail address in a number of places, and
then sends infected messages to the found addresses with any of the
following subjects:

Your details
Approved (Ref: 38446-263)
Re: Approved (Ref: 3394-65467)
Your password
Re: My details
Screensaver
Cool screensaver
Re: Movie
Re: My application

Heads up folks!  I'm suprised none have been pushed through the whole list
quite frankly, does the list server have an anti-virus scanner?

Cheers,
JD
