I have not sent any e-mail in the last 24 hours. Many viruses forge an
e-mail from Microsoft Outlook's address book to make the recipients think it
is coming from someone they know, and to divert the trace away from the true
sender. Do you have the e-mail headers that would show the actual path of
the e-mail? Anything can be put in the "From" line, but the hops across the
network add real path data onto the forgery.
