It's probably not on your machine. Many Outlook/OE virii look through the addressbook on the infected computer and fill in both addressees and senders names from there, thus hiding the actual source as they scatter infected messages across the net. It is almost certainly from someone who has your address in their addressbook, but not necessarily someone on the list, as pairing of addressee and sender names is random. Some on the list are capable of decoding the messages to see where they really came from, but not me.

Hi again,

   Does anyone know anything about this worm? I can't find any info on it,
and my virus scanning software (new and up-to date) does not detect it.
Any help would be appreciated.
