Hello Kristof, thank you VERY much for your response.
I tried what you suggested and it did not find the
virus. I also have mail scanning on. 

One other person replied and requested I send them the
.zip file and clamAV did not detect it as
worm.somefool.B 

This is what they detected:
The virus detector said this about the message:
ClamAV: found_id.zip contains Worm.SomeFool.B 
AntiVir: ALERT: [Worm/NetSky.C worm] found_id.zip <<<
Contains 
signature of the worm Worm/NetSky.C
F-Prot: found_id.zip->found_id.txt.pif  Infection:
W32/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
McAfee: found_id.zip/FOUND_ID.TXT.PIF        Found the
W32/[EMAIL PROTECTED] 
virus !!!

So this would mean I am missing something. My updates
are up to date. What else would prevent it from
detecting the virus? Compression issues?
