What you received is the KLEZ.H virus.  I have received more than a
dozen.  The virus forges the "From:" header.  Some of the KLEZ.H virii
that I have received had the email addresses of some Arachne List
members forged into the "From:" header.  KLEZ.H is a new variant.  It
was first discovered in the wild on April 17th.  Your virus scanning
software won't detect it unless you have the very latest virus
definition files.
