Here's your reason:

"... the variation on the latest version [of SoBig] means that anyone who
has a well-publicized email address is getting inundated. Previous versions
simply went through Outlook addressbooks and sent the virus on (while also
attaching another email address on as the return address). This version also
looks through the victim's cached webpages, so any email address found on
websites that many people visit have discovered that their getting hundreds
or thousands of virus emails."
