Once the file is opened, SoBig, scours the computer for e-mail addresses, checking in Word documents, Internet logs and e-mail in-boxes. Designed like mass-mailing spam programs, it then sends scores of messages to the addresses it has collected.

If you want to be paranoid, you could say that virii make the anti-virus people money, but otherwise... why does everything done on the net have to involve a profit? I'm sure some guys do it just to show they CAN.
