This is a common occurrence when the mailserver has antivirus software which strips infected attachments. Several of the current email viruses spoof the sender's address, so it's not necessarily an indication that you are infected. For good measure, you should make sure that your virus software is up-to-date. You can also check with your mail administrator. They should be able to tell you what the original attachment was, and assist you in determining the true originator (who is probably infected).
