I don't think so.  And I also don't think others on the list got infected
(this time).  Instead, I believe the hackers are breaking into email
accounts and then using them to send their spam to every address in the
contact list.  All of the recent messages have been from just 2 or 3 ISPs
(whom I believe are not as careful about user account security as they might
be).

But that's just a SWAG.
