Perndog Another way this can happen is that many viruses distribute themselves by taking a name from the infected computer's address book and inserting it in the From field of outgoing virus messages, with another random name as the recipient. Therefore, if you have a friend with an infected computer, he could be sending virus e-mails with your address attached, and if he has any invalid addresses in his address book, they will send notices back to you instead of him.

It's just a new ploy. Don't open them.

Anonymous I've been getting some of those from my Hotmail account. I think it's just another ploy to get you to examine the contents of the returned message.

Help! Virus in my e-mail account...?

So I've been getting blocks and returns for these fairly large e-mails that I never sent out. One response said that I had a virus. Any suggestions???
