Default Outlook 2007 sending spam email with my mail

It looks like Outlook is sending multiple spam e-mails to people I do not
know when I send out an a-mail.

I'm guessing this is the case because I am getting 10-20 a-mails a day
saying that unknown addressees I do not recognize cannot accept my mail.
Already my service provider sent a warning and forced me to change from
the "normal" SMTP port to the 587 one. Three questions....

How can I be sure I am attaching spam to my outgoing e-mails. i.e.. the
spam e-mails I receive are in fact true.
How could I see/get to the spam e-mail list
How can I cleanup the problem. I use AVG it detects nothing.





It's highly probable that someone else, who has your email address on
their computer, has a virus. If that's so, nothing you can do about it.
They'll reduce and disappear with time...


Exactly, and if it *was* your computer that was sending the spam messages,
the odds are they wouldn't contain your return address because that would
make it easy to track down the source, and you wouldn't be getting those
bounces.
