destructive virus alert
hey guys and gals just letting you no if you recieve a email called 'invitation ' even though sent by a friend dont open it shut down your pc
immediatly . its a virus that opens a olympic torch that 'burns the whole hard disc of your pc ' .
its been classified by microsoft as the most destructive virus yet there is no repair for this virus it simply destroys the zero sector of the hard
disc where vital imformation is kept .
also another email doing the rounds is along the lines 'osama bin laden captured ' or 'osama hanged ' dont open the attachment , it will crash
your computer and you wont be able to fix it .
hope this helps anyone out ..........
regards bugbrained

Cheers. Theres nothing worse than tech boffins with a chip on their shoulder. I liked the good ol' days when they just used to bring in their
sniper rifle and sit on top of tall buildings. That's why postmen wear fluro coloured jackets. So the SWAT Team can get a clear shot at them!!

NEVER put faith in a virus with a HOAX classification. As soon as this classification is given, a hacker will develop a very nasty virus and use the
parameters of the HOAX to distribute.

Hi
I dont know if your ISP allows you to access your mail online, mine does and Im able to delete dodgy looking emails online instead of downloading them
and finding out the hardway.

repercussions? unlikely. after all, macintosh have been running their operating systems on intel hardware for the past 10 years, and not to mention
most versions of windows on macintosh hardware as well.
how many years has it been with OS X and no virii? they even had a competition about a year ago with $50K to the first person/team to design one that
could copy itself over 2 networked g5's.
:P
macmacmacmac-macitty-macmacmacmac.... the only virii i deal with now are on other peoples window boxes, and thats on a regular basis...
in the beginning, the universe was created.
this made alot of people very angry and is widely regarded as a bad move.

If someone sends me one of the "virus warning" emails, or any other dodgy sounding tripe (Bill gates will send 3c to everyone you send this email
to, just because he can) type thing...
I send them the link to http://www.snopes.com

Viruses don't work on Macs because it will only inconvenience about fifteen people that use the internet. That'll send those big corporations to
their knees!!!!! Mahaahahaah!!!!!
