someones trying to send you a virus.. .

.scr is the extension for a screensaver , it executes if you save that and click on it.

its definately not midi because it would have .mid at the end if it was.

As it was returned mail, someone who has you on their mailing list has the virus. The Klez virus puts a random addressee in the 'from' field, in these two cases it was you. The email didn't reach the intended recipient, so it was returned to *you*. I get a couple of these returned mail thingies every day :mad:

Some one has an ex employee email address in thier address book. The address in still recieved via catch all setting. Between that and the returned emails I receive 10-20 on a daily basis.

This is a virus sent to spread it. Not necessarily your ex-employee...anybody can send you the virus and it is not only you... the person must have sent to many others alongwith you from the source he found your email address from. Make it a habbit to run your antivirus system on a daily basis.

Yeah antivirus stops it. It is still annoying. I have tracked down the ISP the mail coming from and I inform thier abuse department everyday. I am sure it is someone who had our employee and some shared trade emails in their address book.

I get those virri all the time.
It sends itself out to random addys it finds on the infected computer, and uses random addys it finds on the infected computer in the from feild of the emails it sends.
Obvioulsy your email addy was in the from feild when it was sent from the infected computer to a non exsistant email address. Thats why you got the 'returned' email.
Just delete it.
