The php is a dead giveaway: this is probably Bagle.Q et al.  (The message probably 
had object tags around this, correct?)  The infected machine will download a 
script: the script will download a (seemingly innocuous) file, and then rename it 
and invoke it.  Then *you* start sending out email like that  :-)

Have you also contacted the ISP?  The machine owner is probably unaware of 
what is going on.  (The samples I've got are from Korea as well.)
