[plug] Linux virus?

Could someone please advise whether the message below is, as I believe 
it to be, a viral message, and, whether it is a virus for Linux?

Also, whether anyone else has received such a message.

With the message was no text body, but an audio attachment and an 
application arttachment, which usually indicates a virus.

The chinese source address is also suspicious, along with the 
transmission path not including a Debian list, despite the From 
address..

I have not subscribed to any Debian lists, and I do not use Debian.

I have deleted the first few lines of the header, as they are 
irrelevant to this matter, being only the path from our mail server to 
me.

Thanks in anticipation.
