I've just got a bounced virus message as the "sender" had used my eaddr as the return. I've also got the same virus directly, from a different name, but the same IP addr. Based on the eaddr that bounced the message, I think I may know the infected machine
I hope that you can get clear of the virus, or the tempting messages.
The tempting message was:
Subject: Re: Your bill
Please have a look at the attached file.

Yes, this is typical of the 'tempting' messages ... we all receive them. The '.dll' files are the ones to worry about. 'Nuff' said :-)
