Sounds like a virus to me, but I have not seen it yet. Someone will know the specific one soon. Do not open the emails. Delete them.

efabes, cheers yeah kind of thought it was but scanned with AVG and online checker also spybot search and destroy and adware also have zone alarm running with all updates etc. Dont open emails from unknown peeps, infact only get topic notifications from forums rest go in bin unopened...so how do I find out what I could be infected with?

Someone else is infected with it. The infected pc has your address in the address book and it keeps sending you the email. It is possible your isp deleted the actual infected file. Mine has done this on others many times.

efabes, cheers understand now. Uhmm wonder who it could be........they should be more careful! Thanks for the advice along the way, much appreciated.
