RE: Virus?
Yes that is defenatly a virus.

The obvious signs:
* random dodgy names
* recieving it at random times
* always same small size (17KB)
* no extension given in the filename
* the icon picture
* the small shortcut arrow on the icon picture (indicating PIF)
* nobody answers your comments
* getting that budypic crap which says like "Join Budypic" and a link when a contact opens a window with you

That isn't strange at all. Remember that an anti-virus is not a holy grale! They make mistakes too and they don't know every virus or variant either, especially dodgy macro-virusses made by stupid script kiddies...
