Re: Spam of myself ?

It's very easy for someone/something else to send "as you" without actually using your account. Most email systems will display a "reply to" address in preference to the "sender" address if one exists.

It's not necesarily an indicator that you have a virus but that someone who has you as a contact has a virus.

Some viruses not only scour address books for addresses to send to but in order to "hide" their origin, also use the address book to set a different reply to address.
