Do I have a worm virus???

[Outnumbered]

I keep getting these failed attempted e-mail notices. These are people I have not sent e-mail to recently. It looks like someone is using my IP to send out worm attachments via e-mail. Am I right? I have run Norton and adware and nothing comes up. Any ideas?
Here is a sample of the e-mail I keep getting:

It is possible. Which antivirus program do you use, and is it updated. New worms and viruses come out every day, so weekly (at a minimum) updates will keep you from having issues. Update your antivirus, run a full system scan. After that's done, go to an online virus scanning solution (free) and run it also. This will take time, but you want to make sure you've got your bases covered. If there are viruses detected, remove them before they spread. You should use an online resource this is not linked or related to your antivirus software, for example if you are using Norton Antivirus (NAV), try either Macafee or Panda's online free scan as a backup.
Good luck.

When my dogs get worms, I give them these little white pills from the vet. :D

Most likely, someone who has your e-mail address in thier address book has the worm virus. Worms often spoof a hijacked address as the sender. I get these "Delivery Failed" notices all the time.
The way to see if your computer is really sending out these mails is to check your SENT mail file. If you haven't sent mails to these names, then it probably is coming from someplace else.

It's a trap. Wear a condom.

Cool. Then there is no way to use my IP address to send e-mail without it showing up in my outbox? There are none in the outbox so I guess I am clean.
Thanks

Your sent box, your Outbox empties every time you send a message. Sent messages will be stored in your sent folder until deleted manually.

How would I do that and what does it do?
Thanks

Someone you know has a virus/worm or someone you don't know that may have received a message with your name in the TO, CC or BCc fields or your address was picked up on a website from a scanning engine. Be careful where you place your public address. All it takes is one to have a virus come back. Now that it's out there
YOUR DOOMED
