Okay - I think someone on here's infected. Within a couple of hours of my
address first appearing on this list, I got the following:

My system clock was reading 14:27 at the time I recieved this - an ever so
slight discrepancy...
From the reports I've been getting from users it looks like the virus is
spoofing the sent address with a randomly chosen address from the host's
address list.
