Got spam? Blam It On Sober Virus

If you got spammed this weekend in German, and I know I was, you can blame it on the latest iteration of the Sober virus.

eWeek: "A new variant of the Sober mass-mailing worm is being blamed for the deluge of German spam messages flooding inboxes this weekend, anti-virus experts warned on Sunday.

The spam barrage arrives with politically themed messages in German and contains only links to news articles on German Web sites. Finnish anti-virus vendor F-Secure Corp. said the spam run is being powered by Sober.Q, the latest mutant of a worm that was first spotted in October 2003."
