I'm not sure what the answer is to your first question,
however, I'll bet that the answer to your second question
would boil down to "klez" or "sobig". Someone that has
your address in their Windows Address Book was recently
infected by klez or sobig. www.trendmicro.com has ample
documentation on these two little bugs.
