When i send an e-mail, my e-mail client send it but it also send, another one with no text in the body and in the object but with a file attached. Everything begins when i opened a file like the one i send with the second e-mail.

First of all, the necessary questions:

Which e-mail client do you use (version!)?
What protocol (POP3/SMTP) does your e-mail server use?
What is the extension of the file?

I have received an email such as you describe. The problem was a virus on the senders system and the attached file is the virus spreading itself. You need to run an antivirus program on your system and clean out the virus.
