So, if this happens to you, and you make sure that it didn't come from your
system, then don't sweat it.

Yah, it happened to me too. Just to be sure, I contacted my ISP and scanned 
my entire computer. No virus's. I did complain to what appeared to be the 
originating ISP.

Someone on a different machine has your email address stored in their 
address book.  The virus is using that entry to forge your email 
address.

The real problem is that internet protocols originated in the days when 
you could trust other programmers.

2003-08-21 Thread Valerie Nielsen Williams
This hit yesterday for me.  I kept getting these bounce notices to people
I didn't even know.  It's the virus that takes my address out of someone
else's address book, then sends the virus in an email with an attachment
to everyone else in that person's phone book.  Now, I don't have the
virus, but it looks like I am sending it to others.
