I wonder. Now that you mention it, I did see headers that a friend
posted to a mailing list. If I recall, it had these:

>X-MailScanner: Found to be clean
>Importance: Normal
>X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 6.00.2600.0000


I think we need to assume the X-MailScanner was added by the virus
itself. I would assume that the X-Mailer was as well, and that it has
nothing to do with the system it came from. I'm curious -- if all but
three of yours used Outlook Express, did they also all use exactly the
same version? And were they all "Found to be clean"?

I don't believe anything in the header of a virus message except for
the top "Received:" lines.
