Re: email virus "Private Message" why did my norton int sec allow me to open

I received this also yesterday.  Email came from a trusted friend & I opened it ... it looked like spam a spam site.   A while later it sent a copy of the email to everyone on my contact list.  I realised because lots of 'delivery failure notification' messages came back to me (wondering what anti virus software they are using because theirs is obviously doing the job!).   I tried to clear the virus but couldn't work out how.  This morning (16hours later)  the emails were again sent out to everyone on my contact list & I don't know where it is coming from.  I've deleted all the emails from my folder.   How do I get rid of it?
