When I set up tor I gave this yahoo address as a contact address. Just before the thanksgiving holiday I noticed a lot of spam with a zipped file containing the sober worm as an attachment. I have since received about three thousand messages and Ive begun to notice a pattern. It seems that these are addresses that come from tor contact addresses. I have also received error messages (from Yahoo?) that indicate that mail that I never sent from my yahoo account could not be sent. Any ideas?
