The From email addresses can be easily forged. For instance, I could send
you an email as the President of United States. Unless you looked at the
complete email headers, you would not know where the email actually came
from. The spammer you are receiving email from decided to use your own email
address instead of cooking up something. Maybe he did that to bypass any
spam filters you might have set or something like that.
I hardly think it is a case of someone hacking your PC.
