I didn't send anything like this. And if it's a virus or worm, it couldn't have come from my school account because they run unix and don't allow those things to be executed locally.

I ran a virus scan of my system last Friday, and I'm clean. Just an FYI so that if anything is going on on your end, you can fix it.

I've had it happen before as well.... what it is someone using your email as the sender, even if it didn't originate from you. I had an email sent to me from my university's Mailer-Daemon telling me my email with an attachment had been denied, when I sent no such thing.
