how to tell who the ACTUAL sender is, in the case of emailed virus code.
The point is that the sender, i.e. the address in the FROM field

I know this gets discussed from time to time and it is off topic but with us
all passing emails back and forth on the web, its a relevant topic.
If you do not have an Anti-virus program... GET ONE! It is the best money
you will ever spend on a software package. I recommend Norton from Symantec
I receive 3 more (up to 5 now) all with different titles and different sized

Good advice to never, ever open an executable sent via email.
he other day I got as report that one of my messages here generated a "virus alert",

The happy99 virus is not smart enough to fake the email headers.
Are you sure you did a complete scan with updated virus signature files?
