Well, this is a new one... obviously the worm picks up the domain and
auto-populates the fields. A little clever.
Now, it looks like the headers at least show the machine responsible for
sending or relaying the virus:
"Received: from vader (CPE-65-28-169-147.neb.rr.com [65.28.169.147]) by
hydra.host4u.net (8.11.6/8.11.6) with SMTP id i23GDuj25569 for <(my email)>;
Wed, 3 "
I scanned the IP and found a number of ports responding, which are the usual
suspects:
065.028.169.147 21 25 53 80 110
It appears that the IP resides in Nebraska.
Below is the text of the worm's email, which I believe is the Beagle worm,
variant E.
Cheers,
Robert~
