hmm..... not to worry, it's not someone intentionally sending you a virus... it's the latest Outlook/Outlook Express ... ummm "undocumented feature". it's a new virus that's been breaking out recently. i've alreeady got 10 different kinds of it.. it changes a lot, but it's always the same method.
if you look at the headers, you will see that it has an attachment. the MIME type declared for it is "audio/x-midi" however, a couple of lines below, you get the filename which has a ".pif" extension. Outlook/Outlook Express would just look at the header's MIME description and go like "ooooh, a little sound file! how nice! how nice! :o)" execute the file without asking. that's how it works. so far, i've got them in form of .bat, .exe, and .scr... it changes a lot.. but my point is, probably you can't track it down to a single person, virtually everyone who has you on their adress book can be sending them..
