I don't know if I have the precise info, but that seems to be the gist of it. If anyone noticed that google was running slower, that was the reason. It's altogether possible that it is a potential problem for their email server as well. Just something to keep in mind, someone may have more info.
Yes, there was a worm going around that targeted Google, Lycos, Yahoo and some of their properties, but I "think" it is long gone... Search for "google worm" for more info on it...
