ResumoDiscovered on 26 January, 2004, the MyDoom worm went from seed mailing to major threat within hours. By the following day, managed email provider MessageLabs had already logged over one million instances of MyDoom infected email. During that same period, Frisk Software reported 14.3% of all email passing through their aves.f-prot.com filter was MyDoom infected. Within 48 hours, that percentage had risen to at least 31.85%. Erroneous alerting messages from antivirus and filtering products heightened the impact, bringing the total of MyDoom-centric email to 65%.
