I keep getting an email at my work address as follows:

and patternfile lpt$vpn.506
************************************************** ****
I started getting this a week or so ago, and now I'm probably getting 10-20 of these per day. It sounds like my machine is sending something out. I've done a search on "border.exe" and the only virus reference I get is a Klez variant.
Only thing is that I have up-to-date virus protection and do full system scans every week. After getting a few of these I did another scan with the newest virus definitions (Norton's 2002) and it found nothing.
Is this a problem on the other person's machine? I know that some viruses send false warnings out.
I don't think my machine is the problem, but I want to be sure because I'm getting tired of getting all of these messages.
Any ideas?
