SoBig, also known as W32.Sobig.F@mm, is a mass-mailing, network-aware worm that sends itself to all the email addresses it finds in the files that have the following extensions:


.dbx
.eml
.hlp
.htm
.html
.mht
.wab
.txt

The worm uses its own SMTP engine to propagate and attempts to create a copy of itself on accessible network shares, but fails due to bugs in the code.
Shit dude, you got sobig.
