I do a lot of email, and have insta 1

[mimitabby]

I do a lot of email, and have installed on my home computer a
"mailwasher" which checks my mail on the server, and filters it. I saw a piece of
mail from "Postmaster" which I opened in mailwasher, and I could see
that there were 3 attachments, a subject that had nothing to do with
me, the addressee happened to be someone I knew but have never written to
(daughter of a friend) but what was strange was the SENDER was my email address.

I sent it to the abuse department of my ISP, and 2 hours later I get
this thundering email from the supervisor of their department.
"You have a serious virus, it just about took down my computer!"
Please take appropriate steps, or we will cancel your account. So I
downloaded Norton, got the daily updates, and took an hour scanning my 83,000 files to find NOTHING. I called the guy and told him that I had done what he said but was virus free.
He said "I KNOW it's coming from your computer because it not only has
your email address, it has your IP address too." He also said he'd
gotten two other complaints about MY email address that day.
I wrote to several email friends and none of them had ever received anything
suspicious from me.
What gives?
Does anyone have any idea what this is?

Probably Klez.H. Descriptions can be found on all major AV sites. You need to update your NAV scanner or download their remover from their website.

BTW, that guy from your ISP has been drinking too many cups of coffee.
