This virus might be the W32/Bagle.aa@MM virus. It is reported to use
the "Re: Thanks :)" subject.
The info I found for this is here:
http://vil-origin.nai.com/vil/content/v_124875.htm
(Network Associates Inc, aka McAfee).
Other viruses use a "Re: Thanks!" subject so it could be instead a
mutated/new version of other viruses.
