Tanya, my housemate's getting quite a few Mydooms daily.. By which email
address he's getting them at (and which addy he's not) he figures that it's
because he's got that email address published on his website and it was
somehow harvested. There could be a chance that you got it from your
website's exposure too? If you want to test it, you could create a new email
address and secretly insert it in a really tiny font or same colour as the
background or as a junk string in your source, then leave it for a week to
see if it gets infected too?

Cheers,
Ryan
