Virus message from Microsoft.
Hi,
I received an E-Mail, SUBJECT "Re Phone Number", FROM
.
The message reads:
"This message has been processed by Symantec's AntiVirus Technology.
phone_number4.pif was infected with the malicious virus W32.Sality.U and has
been deleted because the file cannot be cleaned.
For more information on antivirus tips and technology, visit

I find it a little strange because
1. I understood that Microsoft didn't send E-Mails.
2. I don't have Norton or Symantec on my computer.
Is this "for real"? Did Microsoft use Symantec (Norton) AV?
I would very much appreciate an explanation.
