new virus. :/

A new virus has just been discovered that has been classified by Microsoft
as the most destructive ever! This virus was discovered yesterday
afternoon by McAfee and no vaccine has yet been developed. This virus
simply destroys Sector Zero from the hard disk, where vital information
for its functioning are stored. This virus acts in the following manner:
It sends itself automatically to all contacts on your list with the title
"A Card for You." As soon as the supposed virtual card is opened, the
computer freezes! so that the user has to reboot. When the keys or the
reset button are pressed, the virus destroys Sector Zero, thus permanently
destroying the hard disk.

Yesterday in just a few hours this virus caused panic in New York,
according to news broadcast by CNN. This alert was received by an employee
of Microsoft itself. So don't open any mails with subject "A Virtual Card
for You." As soon as you get the mail, delete it. Even if you know the
sender. Please pass this mail to all of your friends. Forward this to
everyone in your address book. I'm sure most people, like myself, would
rather receive this 25 times than not at all. Also: Intel announced that
a new and very destructive virus was discovered recently. If you receive
an email called "An Internet Flower For You," do not open it. Delete it
right away! This virus removes all dynamic link libraries (.DLL files)
from your computer. Your computer will not be able to boot up!!
