WARNING - dodgy emails
Posted: Jul 29th, '06, 11:28
Got the following warning this morning.....
If you get an email along the lines of "Osama Bin Laden Captured" or "Osama Hanged" don't open the attachment. This e-mail is being distributed through countries around the globe, but mainly in the US and Israel.
Do not open any message with an attached file called "Invitation" (regardless of who it's from) ... it's a virus that opens an Olympic Torch which "burns" the whole hard disc C of your computer. 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 could be rubbish, yet another junk email - but then again they could be real virus mails and I'd hate anyone to get caught out.
