I don't want to discuss this subject too much. It is nothing but trouble for people around the world. I can say that I am happy to see that some of the virus software is now finally recognizing these latest ones. The one which does appear to be spreading widely is called Worm.Automat.AHB as you mentioned.

I agree that some of these viruses are said to have the ability to circulate copies of themselves using stolen e-mail addresses.
