I JUST GOT A E-MAIL ABOUT A NEW VIRUS GOING AROUND CNN SAID IT IS THE WORST ONE YET. DO NOT OPEN ANY E-MAIL THAT SAYS INVITATION ON IT. EVEN IF IT IS FROM SOMEONE YOU KNOW. IT ATTACHES ITSELF AND THE PERSON YOU KNOW HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH IT. WHEN YOU OPEN IT IT DESTROYS YOUR HARD DRIVE AND THERE IS NO FIX. THOUGHT I WOULD LET ALL MY KAW FRIENDS KNOW.

Got this yesterday.....

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 . This virus simply destroys Sector Zero from the hard disk, where vital 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:
'You've received a Post Card from a Family member.'

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 destroy ng 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 Post Card from...' As soon as you get the mail, delete it !! Even if you know the sender!!!
Please pass this mail to all of your friends.

Forward this to everyone in your address book. I'm sure most people, like myself, would rather receive this notice 25 times than not at all.

It sure is a small world now.... :lxl

PS....
I have just been told its at least two years old.... :wow1
