No John, or Joe, hackers didn\'t get into your computer from that site. I did see the hack job though, very odd. What happened is you got an email with an attachment that you opened, it was a worm and it spread into your address book, and is now replicating itself to people in there. Run a damn virus scan and be done with it already.

The reason it isgetting to people who you never emailed before (ie: me) is because the worm searches your cookies and temporary internet files. So it would find cookies from forums and spider that for addresses, etc.
