Returned Emails

[gary]

I am receiving returned emails saying that recipient can't be found
(example below). I'm not sending these emails. I found some older
postings saying that the only thing that can be done is to filter the
bounce back emails. I'm hoping that there might be something that will
eliminate them from being sent. I'm using Outlook 2003 SP1. Any help
would be appreciated.

it's caused by a virus and there is nothing you can do to stop it, unless it
happens to be your computer that is infected (it probably isn't).
