David (and others with this problem),
I get these ALL the time -- I've talked with the people at Symantic (Norton
AntiVirus) -- and they say not to worry. You didn't really send the message.
It came from someone who has your address in THEIR address book and it was
faked as being sent from you -- was actually sent by the virus on the other
person's computer.
Main message here is to keep your anti-virus program updated (Norton does it
automatically every four hours).
