Since you now know that BIND doesn't send email and its possible to name a
virus whatever the virus writer wishes, it might be prudent to compare the
file with a known good version from here (check signatures):
ftp://ftp.isc.org/isc/bind9/

While off topic for this forum, you should also try netstat -o to identify
the process sending on port 25.
