John, There was no other message with the delivery report, just what I posted, which is a little annoying. And no attachment or information on the attachment, by the looks of it whatever automated system rejects the messages does so just because its an .exe file, not necessarily because there is a virus.
I have to say I'm 99% sure its from this list, as I'm not on any other lists, and only ever sign up to stuff with a fake hotmail account. And I don't think someone within the company who sent the delivery report has my address as they are a US based company, we're UK, and we don't deal with anyone US based. Also I've been contacted by a few people since posting the original topic that have agreed they think its the list, as they have received similar emails before. Incidentally, since posting that message to the list the emails have stopped, I was receiving about 2 a day, so hopefully someone took notice and cleaned their system.

True, someone is spoofing your address, but it's not clear (and probably not likely) that your address was harvested from this list. In the non-delivery report, didn't they send you the original, with full headers and body? Was the executable inline 7-bit encoded (probably base64) or a binary attachment? What was the virus/worm? -- John _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
