Yep, seen it this week - I suspect it's part of another virus which appears to hijack mail servers so the mails it send out look genuine or the timing may have just been a coincidence.

Not the remedy, but an early warning system - have a few addresses on hand ,so that any attempt to send to contacts in the address book result in mail from one address coming back to another of your mail boxes .I've got a couple of Yahoo ones ,and as a security check randomly send my self a mail with attachment and run yahoo security on the incoming mail .
