Avoneer, you may have some kind of nice outlook address book virus or what have you. I'd give it a once over with a decent virus scanner and
maybe adaware too.
alternatively, could have just been someone pretending to be you. I could tell from the mail headers..

more likely your email address has just found its way onto a few dodgy mailing lists.... the penalty for visiting yahoo groups and the like I am
afraid....

Ah right, nothing nasty on Avoneer's computer then, that was sent from an adsl account in the Netherlands. It's just spam.
If you want to report it the abuse email address for the ISP concerned is abuse@euronet.nl, send them the mail with full headers (although
they've probably already shut it down)
