Well, of *course* Google is picking them up - there's valuable data in them. :) Data mining at its best - Google can look at the forged From: and To: headers used by viruses that scrape them from local files, and from that build frequency tables of which addresses are "well known", and thus on many hard drives. Of course, once it's done all that, it then just tosses the message, because it's more efficient and doesn't clog their terabytes of disk farm... :)
