Here's your reason: "... the variation on the latest version [of SoBig] means that anyone who has a well-publicized email address is getting inundated. Previous versions simply went through Outlook addressbooks and sent the virus on (while also attaching another email address on as the return address). This version also looks through the victim's cached webpages, so any email address found on websites that many people visit have discovered that their getting hundreds or thousands of virus emails."
