If you can't find a virus on your machine, yet it appears that your machine
is sending out the bad bug, consider this statement by Symantec about email
spoofing:

Email spoofing
Some variants of this worm use a technique known as "spoofing." If it does
this, it chooses at random an address that it finds on an infected computer
as the "From:" address that it uses when it performs its mass-mailing
routine. Numerous cases have been reported in which users of uninfected
computers receive complaints that they have sent an infected message to
someone else.

Pretty neat, eh??
