It probably isn't your PC, there's probably a virus on a pc of somebody who has your email in there address book. The virus on that machine uses addresses from the address book to spoof the return address on the emails it sends out to make it more likely the recipient will recognise the name and open the email to infect that pc.

To anyone who already has had such mail please accept my apologies. I recently started to use an anti virus system supplied via my bank. I have done a full scan with this system as well as a quick scan of vulnerable parts of my computer system. The scans have revealed no worms, no trojans and not even one virus. Can anyone suggest anything else I can do to clean my computer system or suggest any other way that my computer might have been corrupted.
