Did someone take over my computer? Huck 11-24-2006

I got a message saying that an email I sent was undeliverable. I didn't
send any email to this party. I have received several such messages. Is it
possible that my computer has some sort of virus that is sending messages
from my computer? If that is possible, how can I learn about it and what
can I do?



The message I got was the following:



Subject: Sale Cialis USD28 Ambieen

Your message

Subject: Sale C1ALIiS USD28, AMBIEEN US22
Sent: Fri, 24 Nov 2006 12:39:34 -0500

Probably some spammer has used your address as a "From" address and it's hit
a bad address which sent you a bounce back...

I see these pretty regularly with all of my clients, though there is nothing
outbound from their mail server to the addresses listed.
