Alright. This is just plain silly. Someone on the mailing list belongs
to www.rogers.com => and they are using MS Windows (whatever version).
This is a French/Canadian ISP. Your machine is infected, and as part of
normal etiquette, you should 1.) Run a proper virus scan on your MS
Windows machine if you're going to take part in mailing lists, 2.) Stop
using MS Outlook or MS Outlook Express and use Mozilla Thunderbird or
something similar, 3.) Make haste as this is the fifth time that this
has come from your machine.
How was this found out? By reading the bloody email headers in full
source.
