Fw: warning: virus

*** WARNING ***

A new virus has just been discovered that has been classified by Microsoft

(

···

http://www.microsoft.com/) <http://www.microsoft.com/&gt; and by McAfee
(http://www.mcafee.com/)
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 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.
According to news broadcast by CNN (http://www.cnn.com/). 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 on this mail to all 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.

SEND THIS TO EVERYONE ON YOUR CONTACT LIST!!

Discovered by McAfee... wasn't it previously found that they create the
viri themselves to boost their av soft sales?

This is the general nwo strategy, btw. First they create a problem so they
can "fix" it and move another step to total control.
