Some times you get what looks like a valid e-mail with a valid topic.

SINGLE click on it to highlight. right click and go to properties.

look at the return e-mail address:
a leading underscore "_" indicates that it contains the virus.
For example:
good <Fred> red@itsmail.net

bad <Fred> _red@itsmail.net

The leading underscore prevents you from doing a reply to sender.

You can read about this in the Norton or McAfee web site about this virus.

good luck
