So your question would be?

Fairly obvious why they're blocking that file type.

Looks like you have a virus and its sending itself out from your system. If I were you I would disconnect from the internet until you find out for sure. If it is a virus your spreading it.

Well I think you are being a bit selfish, here you are spreading a virus around because you live on the internet. I hope your address book is rather limited, and your friends have better virus protection than you.
