Don't bother. That particular virus (like basically all viruses) spoof's the
sender's address. The "sender" as it appears in the e-mail is more than
likely NOT the actual sender. Grokking the headers wont help much either as
most spam/virus bots insert spoofed headers too.
You got a virus, clam found it - just delete it :)
Cheers,
James
