The worm is passed into the bulk mail folder. No scanning is necessary and none is performed for simple mail delivery. This is the real message posted on Yahoo groups:
Dear Yahoo! Groups Members,
Due to a recent outbreak of computer viruses being transmitted via email messages, Yahoo! Groups is experiencing delays in delivering group messages. To improve performance, and to help reduce the spread of viruses, Yahoo! Groups has had to temporarily reject some messages.
Based on an advisory posted by a leading anti-virus company, Groups will temporarily reject messages with the following subject lines:
test
hi
hello
Mail Delivery System
Mail Transaction Failed
Server Report
Status
Error
If you have attempted to post a message to Yahoo! Groups and have received a rejection notice with a link to this page, your computer may have been infected. If you are confident that your computer is not infected but your message was rejected, please try posting a new message with a subject line which is different than those listed above.
We can assure you that this is only a temporary measure and hope to restore message delivery to normal as soon as possible.
The only thing that appears on Groups pages is a link at the top center called "Service Announcement", pointing to the text above. If you are getting redirected as indicated above, you are infected.
