Tom,
If it's of any
consolation, this happens to me all the time, too. I am usually able to
tell that it's one of the spoofing 'viruses' because they purport to come from a
superseded university email address which I haven't used to send mail from for
over 12 months. Many of my chaplaincy colleagues are very naive about the
finer points of email and will trustingly open any attachment on any email they
receive (even ones from total strangers) so they get infected with every
virus going, it seems. Since I was involved in running an international
conference, I now get messages from all over the world telling me that emails I
didn't send are infected. I just keep my anti-virus data files up to date,
am ruthless about deleting emails that look even remotely suspicious and check
carefully in the headers of any emails I get that say that my computer is
infected before panicking.

supposedly from Tom
Grrrrr! I
apologise to everyone for constantly getting email containing viruses with
my return address on it. One of the Insights listee�s helped me by
studying the header (the technical hidden stuff) of one of these emails and
made it abundantly clear that these virus laden messages are not from
me.
Why they have my
address on it almost ALL the time has me flummoxed.
