That person probably got hit with a virus that looks to his sent mail and 
address list and sends out messages that contain an attached virus file.   The 
VBscript is probably malicious. Don't open.

If in doubt, contact the person who purportedly sent it and ask if he really 
sent it and what changes he made.
