There are a few viruses that apparently pretend to send bounce messages. "MAILER-DAEMON" is a term primarily used by Unix mailservers to refer to the process that bounces E-mails.Since the ip mentioned in the warnings is not part of my WAN, and since my Declude is warning me of an *outgoing* virus, I'm guessing the cause would be your first possibility. In which case he must be using a home computer which now needs to be scanned. If the cause was your second possibility, then (in my case) Declude would not notify me of an outgoing virus, but an incoming one.
Another possibility is that someone sent out a virus with your user's return address, addressed to a non-existent user. The mail then may have legitimately bounced, and gone to your user.
Am I understanding you correctly?
Thanks for your help, Scott.
