Subject: WORST VIRUS EVER...CNN ANNOUNCED


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, 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 "A 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 ar! e
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!! Even if you know the
sender!!! !
