It's you - you are infected. The aol.com part is a red herring. 
The IP the mail actually came from, 66.156.62.200, resolves 
to adsl-156-62-200.asm.bellsouth.net, which is you. Your email 
program does not need to be "on" for the virus to send email: 
it connect directly to port 25 itself to do the dirty deed. 
Viruses can also hide themselves very well - get professional 
anti-viral help with this. Please disconnect yourself from the 
net immediately, gather information and disinfection tools from 
another computer, and clean your machine.

FWIW, the leading underscore in the email address is a big 
clue that you haev the latest nasty M$ virus.
