From time to time I get messages from the likes of Norton AntiVirus that I
sent a message with a virus. They always cite the same version of my email
address, which is not the usual version (it's set up to allow variations on
the first part before the "@" sign).

I know from several scans with different AV progs, Adaware, Spybot, use of
trojan detectors etc and a Firewall, that i am clean, so i presume it's
being sent by someone who has this particular version of the email address
in their address book. It's a version that allows me to take some guesses to
narrow down who it might be, but still too many to identify them precisely.

So, does the info below, taken from the latest "alert" give me any cluse - I
just don't know how to read it. I have replace references to my email
address with XXXXXXXXXXXXXX

These are the headers of the notice... All it tells us is that some
address @ canon.co.uk was on the same infected computer with yours.

We'd need the headers from the *original* message - the one it's
reporting ON.
