Worm

This looks like another outbreak of the worm we discussed a few weeks ago.
It looks in your mail program for addresses and uses these to spoof the
sender. The might say they come from killietalk, but they don't. You should
NEVER open ANY executable attachments without checking them for viruses
first. This worm attaches one of a number of .exe files to the message. You
can get more info on sites such as www.symantec.com.
