Roger,
New Viruses are tricky
They disguise them selves and change them selves
They send them selves to anyone in your address book
but can alter the return address so that no one can tell who really sent it.
I am glad your Virus scan caught it and you were smart enough to delete it
without opening
A warning to all on this list. never open an attachment without scanning it
first
