After the replies I got on this discussion, I got to thinking, while I did not scan or open the attachment "floaf.exe", I went back to the Norton report log and found that the file was an infected attachment:

Date: 4/1/02, Time: 08:37:30, ###### on OEMCOMPUTER
The email attachment fLOAF.exe is infected with the W32.Magistr.39921@mm virus.
The file was repaired.

Apparently the user whose email this was sent to either attempted to open the attachment (argh!!!) or Norton caught the infected file when the email was retrieved from the server. I'm sure that Prodigy would catch it and send a reply, but that saves me some additional thumb twidling and unnecessary searching the net.

Thanks to all who replied for at least getting me to think about some other possibilities and finding out more about this virus and viruses in general.

Thumbs up to the board!!!

P.S. ac1dsp3ctrum I will post the Prodigy reply as soon as I get it, it it helps anyone out in watching out for the origin of the email.
