Subject: Yet more Klez

It seems at least one or two other listers received one or more of the same 
infected emails that I got from the NetVision server spoofing some of our 
list member's addresses.

I've been getting these just about daily now.  Today's installment purports 
to be from Ex Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak!  Does this header look 
familiar to anyone:

Subject: A  new website

My address on the same computer as one with Barak�s address?  I suppose it�s 
certainly possible.  But if Neil�s theory about these coming from a computer 
belonging to a list member is a possibility, who has my address and Barak�s 
address on their system?

Has anyone else received this one?

It seems like Klez is also smart enough to dig through non-email related 
files on a host system for information.  It certainly finds small text and 
graphic files to attach as a second file.  I wonder if any virus research 
groups have really established what all the Klez and Ninda viruses are 
capable of.  What are the odds that it would pick Barak's address out of the 
many email addresses on a system?

In more than 10 years of using computers on networks I�ve never seen the 
same virus come in infected email to my mailbox from the same server on a 
daily basis.  The few I�ve received over the years have come in one email 
once.  I�ve never gotten them daily like these recent posts.
