Subject: New Mydoom variant destroys files

http://www.securityfocus.com/news/8124

This article says at one point that 7% of all e-mails worldwide currently
are copies of Mydoom.A, and that 5% are the new Mydoom.F, which is a file
destroyer.  There's a lack of info in this particular article about the
pattern of file destruction, anyone know how it works?
