I have been recieving a lot of e-mails from people I do not know with nothing in the body of the email + a coworker(user) got email from me which I never sent. Any idea why?

It could be a virus on the co-worker's machine sending itself out to everyone in the address book. You happen to be one of the people listed. I would recommend updating your virus signatures and scan for viruses.

This looks like what the Klez virus does.....it infects a computer. Takes a random name from that user's address list to send from, then propogates itself to the rest of the list. It probably is not on your computer or your cowerker's, but somebody who has both of you in his/her address list. Might be able to track where it came from by looking at the address in the e-mail headers
