The Fish 11128 Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 a firend just sent this to me. She's not the type to send chain letters or any crap like that. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY NOT A JOKE. IGNORE IT AND SUFFER PLEASE FORWARD THIS WARNING AMONG FRIENDS, FAMILY AND CONTACTSYou should be alert during the next days:Do not open any message with an attached filed called Invitation"regardless of who sent it It is a virus that opens an Olympic Torch which "burns" the whole hard disc of your computer. This virus will be received from someone who has your e-mail address in his/her contact! list, that is why you should send this e-mail to all your contacts. It is better to receive this message 25 times than to receive the virus and open it. If you receive a mail called "invitation," though sent by a friend, do not open it and shut down your computer immediately. This is the worst virus announced by CNN, it has been classified by Microsoft as the most destructive virus ever. This virus was discovered by McAfee yesterday, and there is no repair yet for this kind of virus. This virus simply destroys the Zero Sector of the Hard Disc, where the vital information is kept. SEND THIS E-MAIL TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW, COPY THIS E-MAIL AND SEND IT TO YOUR FRIENDS AND REMEMBER: IF YOU SEND IT TO THEM, YOU WILL ALL BENEFIT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
