Has anyone had problems with yahoo mail being loaded with spam emails containing the SoBig virus since yesterday September the 4th? I have received over 70 infected emails since yesterday. They are still coming in to my bulk mail on yahoo by the dozens. A couple of them even used my email addy as the sender and receiver! The emails shows references to: your application; details; wicked screen saver. In my regular inbox, I am receiving mailer daemons stating that emails I've sent to addresses I don't even know has been infected with the SoBig worm as if I sent it out. I have scanned my computer with 2 different scans and am clean so far.

I've been getting these emails on all my accounts. I don't think it's a Yahoo specific problem.
