Does anyone have any idea how this works ?

I have all the latest critical updates and cannot find a setting in Outlook
Express to prevent this so could this possibly used for an exploit ?

maybe this is not even a virus but a default behavoir of express
here is how to disable it

select tool > options > 
in the windows that opens select "send"
uncheck "Automatically put the people that i reply in my address book"

and that will be the end of this

ps. next time please send this type of question to the security basics list and then send it over here
