Virus turns PCs into spam machines

http://www.msnbc.com/news/931205.asp?0dm=C11MT

Another version of the SoBig virus, the fifth in recent weeks, hit Internet users Wednesday. Antivirus firms quickly raised the risk to medium as the worm started spreading rapidly during U.S. business hours. The latest SoBig outbreak, plus another malicious effort also unleashed Wednesday, show the line between viruses and spam continues to blur. What?s worse, virus writers are refining techniques to hijack innocent victims? computers, turning them into an army of spam machines.
