hackers have managed to come up with another one..............
worst virus announced by CNN ( of course to date, we all another one will be invented soon)
>>>>>>>> Subject: IMPORTANT VIRUS INFO!!!!!!!
>>>>>>>> I checked with Norton Anti-Virus, and they are gearing up for
>>>>>>>> this virus so I believe this is real.
>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>> I checked snopes.com , and it is for real. (i personally did NOT, this was part of the email)
>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>> 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 'Invitation,' regardless of
>>>>>>>> who sent it to you. It is a virus which opens an Olympic Torch
>>>>>>>> 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 'Invitation,' even though sent to
>>>>>>>> you by a friend, do no to 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.
