There's a nasty little sod called 'Klez' around at the moment. As with previous Outlook infections, your punishment for using a security-hole-ridden mail client is a virus that sends out messages containing itself. This time, though, instead of the mails appearing to come from the infected party, they can appear to be coming from anybody in the address book of the infected party. This means a virus allegedly coming from person A to person B is actually coming from person C, who has both A & B in his address book.
