Undeliverable messages

[ChrisB]

I have suddenly started getting tons of 'undeliverable' messages through
outlook for addresses I have not mailed! I have no viruses that I can find
and no adware, etc. I have both Nortons and SpyDr loaded on my PC and no
other problems.

Any ideas?

It's not you - it's other computers that are infected. Nothing you can do
AFAIK.....

I'm happy to hear it's not me - but how come the undeliverable messages are
coming to me? This has only recently started happening?

The infected computer has your email address on it somewhere - doesn't have
to be just in an address book these days - and is spoofing it as the return
address.
