Deleting SoBig spam has become an unfortunate routine. - Here are some "new" subject
lines to watch for and delete:

Re: Approved
Re: That movie
Re: Wicked screensaver
Your details
Re: Details


And another important hint: - SoBig appaerently is able to scoop email addresses
from Internet Explorer cache .. I'm thunking this suggests that all you need to do
is VISIT a webpage with an email address .. any email address that happpens to be on
the page is then cached in the browser .. if youre machine is infected with SoBig ..
the cached emails then become "fair game" to SoBig and .. you can guess how the
story goes from there ..


SUGGESTION: - Using explorer? - set history to no cache or at least clear history
cache regularly ..
