Virus Email Sent in Your Name

Someone claims that I am sending them email that has a virus, but I have not sent them any email. What is going on?
There are a number of "worm" viruses that propagate themselves by automatically sending themselves as an attachment to all recipients in the address book(s) on the infected machine. Information on virus protection, detection, and removal may be found at http://its.psu.edu/virus.html. Also check http://css.its.psu.edu/news/alerts/.
