"A potentially massive Internet attack starts today

 

F-Secure Corporation is warning about a new level of attack to be
unleashed by the Sobig.F worm today. 

Helsinki, Finland - August 22, 2003

Windows e-mail worm Sobig.F, which is currently the most widespread worm
in the world, has created massive e-mail outages globally since it was
found on Tuesday the 18th of August - four days ago. The worm spreads
itself via infected e-mail attachments in e-mails with a spoofed sender
address. Total amount of infected e-mails seen in the Internet since
this attack started is close to 100 million. 

However, the Sobig.F worm has a surprise attack in its sleeve."
