If you are getting an email from the email address of the people you know, make sure you tell them their computer is also infected by the virus.
Use AntiVirus! have fun cleanin' up your computer ;)

Does your antivirus software capable of scanning incoming or outgoing mail? If it does then it should scan and detect the virus if any. If you are using yahoo or msn mail, their antivirus should scan your mail and block it if found any virus.
