Steve Postma <spostma () travizon com> cites:

However, the Sobig.F worm has a surprise attack in its sleeve." 

From the web site:

18 of 20 addresses where known to the AV community since Tuesday.  I
don't know what F-Secure is doing here.

Why don't they publish the list of IP addresses so that people can put
filters on their networks?

*sigh*
