My sister said she received an e-mail from me today with
an attachement. The problem is I never sent it. She
forwarded it to me so I could see it. The attachment was
calles release.exe

I could not open it as hotmail had "blocked the unsafe
attachment".

Can someone be using my e-mail address.

Sounds like she or possible both of you have been a victim of the Netsky
worm. read about it --->

Depending on which AV program you/she have there are various ways of
checking to see and subsequently removing it if you or your sister
computers have been infected.
