Hi Tom,

We have no collegue named "Lutz Hausmann". Also we have no Securepoint software. The message must use an older email account, because the message footer points to a date in february.

At least take a look to heise online (german) about the bugbear.b virus:
http://www.heise.de/newsticker/data/pab-05.06.03-001/

I think, the virus has captured our domain from an email on an infected PC.
