It isn't really a hotmail address that is the source name used, but if you 
would check the Control F3 keys in combination on an unopened message it would 
give a little information on the actual source but don't know if it is really 
affective but the virus is one and the same posted about so far! 
W32.Klez.gen@mm is a mass-mailing worm that will send itself to all email 
addresses in the Microsoft Outlook Address Book.

The subject and attachment name of incoming emails are randomly chosen. The 
attachment will have one of the following extensions: .bat, .exe, .pif or .scr.

The worm may include a virus that will destroy all files on the 13th of March 
and September.

  Everyone on this list that has a hotmail email address please
  be careful.
  Twice yesterday and once today someone using a hotmail address tried to give
  me the klez worm.
  All 3 times a different email address was used.
  I am using avg virus it is really catching this worm.
  Once again be very careful.
