Uh oh. Not good. Check the header, make sure that's the real address.

 

[aeroripper]

mostly likely other spam using your address book and setting you virus... so you "think" its safe cause the name is some1 you trust or you know

pretty common happens all the time to me at hotmail

It's just a spoofed email. Some bott probably found your email on a Half-Life related site and gave you emails from Gabe.(You can see by the name he's using "Gaben".(i.e it's just taking the name from the email address)

That or a friend of yours has a worm, and then it could be spoofing one of the emails on his contactlists.

Spoofing is where the email appears to come from a different address to the one it did in fact come from.

i.e. in this case, the email came from the spammer, but the spoofing meant it seemed to come from Gabe. It had his address on it, but he didn't send it.

Standard spoofed virus email, nothing to see here

Sorry but that made me laugh

Email is just a plain text file so anyone can spoof the sender mail address to be just about anything. This one is most likely spoofed.

Check the damn headers before you post...
