if u know what virus it is, why didn't you try using the
symantec tool to scan every system? if u know it's
netsky, then u should know that the virus spoof email
addresses for the from field. so the origination of the
mail may not be from your network. if u r using outlook,
u can right click on the message and select option, this
will show you the email header from which u can see where
it really come from.
