Virus Warning!!!

[alisonofcoalway]

Hi everyone

I received this warning last night so passing it on.

VERY IMPORTANT WARNING.



Please Be Extremely Careful especially if using internet mail such as Yahoo, Hotmail, AOL and so on. This information arrived this morning direct from both Microsoft and Norton.
Please send it to everybody you know who has access to the Internet.

You may receive an apparently harmless email with a Power Point presentation

"Life is beautiful"

If you receive it DO NOT OPEN THE FILE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, and delete it immediately. If you open this file, a message will appear on your screen saying: "It is too late now, your life is no longer beautiful."

Subsequently you will LOSE EVERYTHING IN YOUR PC and the person who senti t to you will gain access to your name, e-mail and password.

This is a new virus which started to circulate on Saturday afternoon. AOL has already confirmed the severity, and the antivirus software's are not capable of destroying it.

The virus has been created by a hacker who calls himself "life owner ."

PLEASE SEND A COPY OF THIS EMAIL TO ALL YOUR FRIENDS and ask them to
PASS IT ON IMMEDIATELY.

Don't panic, it's a hoax, and a very old one at that. 2002 it first surfaced.

Oh well - better safe than sorry.
I received it from a safe source - but they had already sent it out to lots of people.
Cheers

These panic emails are designed to get people to niavely send them on.. then the receipents send them on etc.. so that more and more junk emails clogs our inboxes. My advice is - delete delete and.. delete!
