Thought I'd forward the heads up to you about a new virus. If you have any
doubts about any emails you get, DON"T OPEN! Especially, don't open any
e-cards
PLEASE SEND THIS TO EVERYONE ON YOUR CONTACT LIST!!
A new virus has just been discovered that has been classified by Microsoft
as the most destructive ever! This virus was discovered yesterday afternoon
by McAfee and no vaccine has yet been developed. This virus simply destroys
Sector Zero from the hard disk, wherevital information for its functioning
are stored. This virus acts in the following manner: It sends itself
automatically to all contacts on your list with the title "A Virtual Card
for You." As soon as the supposed virtual card is opened, the computer
freezes so that the user has to reboot. When the ctrl+alt+del keys or the
reset button are pressed, the virus destroys Sector Zero, thus permanently
destroying the hard disk. Yesterday in just a few hours this virus caused
panic in New York, according to news broadcast by CNN. This alert was
received by an employee of Microsoft itself. So don't open any mails with
subject:"A Virtual Card for You." As soon as you get the mail, delete it.
Please pass this mail to all of your friends. Forward this to everyone in
your address book. I would rather receive this 25 times than not at all.
Also: Intel announced that a new and very destructive virus was discovered
recently. If you receive an email called "An Internet Flower For You," do
not open it. Delete it right away! This virus removes all dynamic link
libraries (.dll files) from your computer. Your computer will not be able to
boot up !!
