Warning - email replication trojan

[Midnight]

I received emails from three separate people on this, containing the following content

~~~
Hi! How are you?

I send you this file in order to have your advice

See you later. Thanks
~~~

The files sent are in .bat format, and are word documents that contain .vs or visual basic script. I can only assume these are virii.

The emails are sent from the following sources:

I got 4 of them, I just assumed they were spam of some type and deleted.

I have gotten over 250 in the past 48 hours.. Everytime I open my mailbox I fucking have soo many that my mail box is about to shut down cause it is almost to its capacity..

I am going though and blocking the addresses of each indvisul that sends it cause it seem slike each person sends it multiple times, but then another new person sends it, and another and another..

If I leave for the weekend my email box will be closed for any new mail cause it is soooo full.. This is not good.

And it is getting worse! I just went out to dinner with my wife for about 2-3 hours, and I had 33 of them in my box when I got back!

Wouldn't it be ironic if the person that started this has his own mailbox jammed with the same emails jamming ours..?
