The simple rule... whoever the virus claims to be from is NOT the person 
it is from. No email virus currently of issue on Windows claims to come 
from the person it really came from. NONE OF THEM.

That is why I find it so damn annoying that companies like Symantec setup 
their AV Email scanners to send a bounce message when a virus is 
detected. The person getting the bounce DID NOT SEND THE VIRUS. And 
Symantec, and all the other AV companies should know this. They know the 
way the viri work, they know what they are doing, and they are well aware 
that the email claims to be from someone it isn't. So WHY WHY WHY do they 
insist on clogging up everyone's mailboxes with useless messages?!?
