    DEADLY VIRUS-We all have it
    There is a dangerous virus being passed around electronically, orally, and By hand. This virus is called Worm-Overload-Recreational-Killer (WORK).
    If you receive WORK from any of your colleagues, your boss, or anyone else Via any means DO NOT TOUCH IT. This virus will wipe out your private life Completely.
    If you should come into contact with WORK put your jacket on and take two Good friends to the nearest grocery store. Purchase the antidote known as Work-Isolating-Neutralizer-Extract (WINE) or
    Bothersome-Employer-Elimination-Rebooter (BEER). Take the antidote
    Repeatedly until WORK has been completely eliminated from your system. You should forward this warning to 5 friends. If you do not have 5 friends, you have already been infected and WORK is controlling your life.

    During the next several weeks be VERY cautious about opening or launching any e-mails that refer to the World Trade Center or 9/11 in any way, regardless of who sent it. PLEASE FORWARD TO ALL YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY.
    For those that don't know, 'WTC' stands for the World Trade Center. This is very dangerous because people will open it right away, thinking it's a story relating to 9-11. Do not open "WTC Survivor"...It is a virus that will erase your whole "C" drive. It will come to you in the form of an e-Mail from a familiar person. I repeat, a friend sent it to me, but called and warned me before I opened it. He was not so lucky and now he can't even start his computer! Forward this to everyone in your address book. I would rather receive this 25 times than not at all. If you receive an email called "WTC Survivor" do not open it. Delete it right away! This virus removes all dynamic link libraries (.dll files)
    from your computer.
    PLEASE FORWARD THIS MESSAGE

    I just got an email that I believe to be a virus of some sort, labelled "book review" or "book report" or something like that. The text says "I sent this to you on your recommendation." There is an attachement. I didn't know the sender, so I chucked it. I think it was a virus, so watch out.
    "...hit your enemy in the belly, and kick him when he is down, and boil his prisoners in oil- if you take any- and torture his women and children. Then people will keep clear of you..." -Admiral of the Fleet Lord Fisher, speaking at the Hague Peace Conference in 1899.

    If you don't know who the sender is, Don'topen your e-mail! Usually attachments toe-mail carry viruses. Be careful! If I donot know the sender, into the trash it goes.

    it is the sircam 32 virus, you were exactly right, I toss them all unless I recognize the subject or the address, get yourself a firewall, they do wonders, mine has stopped several from being recieved in my inbox.
