OK, here's a new trick...

I just had an e-mail from '[e-mail]' saying:

'If the message will not displayed automatically,
follow the link to read the delivered message. Received message is available at:
(domain)/inbox/video/read.php?sessionid-9139'

Now I host my own site and I know full well there's no folder called Inbox or Video. So what lies at the end of that path? Just a virus perhaps?

Bizzarely I've just got one of them as well...

Different sender.

Seems like someone who has your email address has a virus...

I guessed as much - just couldn't figure out why it was connected to my domain, as though it was part of a website - what's ?php mean?

PHP is a programming language for dynamically generating web pages - a little like I imagine .ASP is.
