Andy,
Would you happen to have the original email?  I don't believe that I 
have any viruses on my system; I'm running Thunderbird, Firefox, and the 
version of Symantec without the vulnerabilities that have just been 
reported.  However, I'd like to see the headers on that email; while 
it's easy to forge them, there is always the possibility that I do have 
a virus and need to do something about it.
There is a very common virus passing technique beening used these days 
whereby an email address is harvested from a list archive and used to 
send a virus infected email to the list.  So, that being said, it is 
impossible to determine if the sender of the virus without viewing the 
headers of the email.

If Andy could forward the headers of that email to you, that would be 
sufficient in deteriming whether it was spoofed or not.
