Virus Warning
I RECEIVED THE MESSAGE BELOW AS A FORWARD FROM SOMEONE
RELIABLE, BE CAREFUL
Please read about this virus. This information was
forwarded to me by
Harry's submarine buddies. Stay Safe!
Dottie Clarke
Just an fyi from the Technology Dept.:
BIG VIRUS COMING
http://www.snopes. com/computer/ virus/postcard. asp
Hi All, I checked with Norton Anti-Virus, and they are
gearing up for
this virus!
I checked Snopes (URL above:), and it is for real!!
Get this E-mail message sent around to your contacts
ASAP.
PLEASE FORWARD THIS WARNING AMONG FRIENDS, FAMILY AND
CONTACTS!
You should be alert during the next few days. Do not
open any message
with an attachment entitled 'POSTCARD,' regardless of
who sent it to
you. It is a virus which opens A POSTCARD IMAGE, which
'burns' the
whole hard disc C of your computer.
This virus will be received from someone who has your
e-mail address in
his/her contact list. This is the reason why you need
to 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' POSTCARD,' even though
sent to you by a
friend, do not open it! 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.
COPY THIS E-MAIL, AND SEND IT TO YOUR FRIENDS.
REMEMBER: IF YOU SEND IT
TO THEM, YOU WILL BENEFIT ALL OF US.
Snopes lists all the names it could come in
