windows mail virus sending out mass emails

Hi everyone,

I'm new to the forums. I was hoping someone could help me with a problem. I've just got back to the office from holidays and have found that windows mail has a virus and seems to be sending out mass emails automatically.

We got 100s of returned mail items to addresses that are not in our address book, however i'm unable to see what was actually sent out as there is nothing in our sent box.

I've done an avg and norton anti virus scan, but these don't pick anything up. Does anyone have any experience with this problem, or any suggestions?

thanks in advance
kiran

Two programs you should run right away: Windows Defender, installed with Vista, and Microsoft Malicious Program Removal Tool, which is free and available from the Microsoft web site.
