Do you also receive the Klez virus regularly by email?

I got 62 copies of it last month - almost all via the same open
relay at pacific.net.sg, almost all with fake email addresses
that appear to be sourced from the IBO list.

I am wondering if the generator of these viruses occassionally
uses the subscribe address for this group, resulting in yahoo
thinking that I am trying to resubscribe.
