OT: Email Virus

I keep getting emails with an attached file containing the W32/Klez.h@MM virus. My McAfee software is identifying them but it's really annoying dealing with them. How do I find out where they're comimg from?

They are coming from everyone who has the virus that has your email address in their address book.
Don't open it to find out the source!
You'll regret it.

Go to www.norton.com where you can download a repair tool for this virus.

I think this is the exact page.
