To isolate the problem , try another email client , you can still keep IE6 .

A possiblity is that someone somewhere is infected with a virus and the infected machine (not your machine) is using your address as the sender because you are listed in that persons address book.

If that is the case then not much you can do about it. joegz

I have seen a similar type of spam.
It appears to look like a 'mail undeliverable' type message - but on closer inspection it just some spam petending to be a bounced message.
