Thunderbird weirdness

Anyone ever had any trouble with Thunderbird mixing up the message bodies of emails? The past few days I have received legitimate emails that had the text of a spam email added onto its end. Not attached, but added to the body of the email.

This has happened on a few emails I sent from work, as well as a few comment notifications through MT. And this isn't happening to all emails, just a few.

I would do a bit of research, see if this is a documented bug, but I cannot figure out how to word it concisely. Poking through the Thunderbird forums and knowledge base and big reports really isn't my idea of a fun few days.

I'm also running AVG Anti-Virus; perhaps that could have something to do with it? Maybe the home computer has some malware? A virus? Any ideas?

I've also had problems with not getting emails that I know I should be getting, messages I saw when checking my webmail but somehow managed to dissapear when I tried to download them to Thunderbird. Perhaps it is time to ditch Thunderbird all together. But move to what?

A copy of a problem email can be found behind the jump.
