Was it from the future? any stock quotes or messages of concern??

One guess would be you have your address in your address list and
malware sent the same out to everyone in the list - you are running OE

Probably not; it's woefully easy to put any name and email address you
want to in the 'From' of an email, so spammers and other nasty types get
'real' names and addresses by scanning newsgroups and web sites and then
use them to fake the From headers as well as to get addresses to send
there stuff to.

Presumably you have your 'anti-virus' etc programs up-to-date and scanning
incoming data.

And you OPENED it? What kind of MORON are you? That is one of the easiest
ways for your computer to get infected, attacked, etc. by malicious
software. Geez...
