The problem is you don't remember the name used for uploading as. I have searched your name, a one example filename from the list you gave, a few MD5 sums but haven't found any submission looking as yours. Maybe you remember dates? Or any fragment of the email address or name used? Anyway, we appreciate submitting currently spreading malware caught "in the wild". If you select some "distinct" name for submitting, we'll be able to easier monitor your submissions. Thanks -- Tomasz Papszun SysAdm @ TP S.A.
