I've gotten about 50 of these faked headers over the last 2 weeks. One was
from an email account I own, but isn't in use.

"The file attached to this email was removed because it is infected with the
[EMAIL PROTECTED] virus."

You should check the headers of the message as well. Patrick's
messages come from the cyotix.com domain, on a 66.x.x.x subnet.
The last two virus-laden emails came from 83.33.26.129. It's
safe to say from this info that it's not Patrick's computer (at
least at work) that is infected.
