It's a virus. Tell everyone on your bulletin because if somebody on your list adds them, you get the virus too. Tell everyone on your list not to topen anything fro mVivekabarathi. It is a hard drive killer and a very horrible virus. Pass this letter to everyone on your buddy list.

Dear Anthony, Thanks, I did see it from a couple of other sources. Apparently it has to do with Yahoo Messenger, someone trying to add you to their messenger list, and the virus somehow being downloaded when you accept the invitation? I'm not sure if I got that totally correct, but I received an email earlier today from Kathy saying that it has something to do with Yahoo Messenger, and it is coming from someone here at Adland Pro. (Growth pains, I guess, lol.) Thought I'd share what she wrote. Be safe, everyone! Sincerely,

Hello Anthony, I have been warned of another virus alert. I was going to create a new thread but wasnt sure if that would lead me to having emails regarding the new thread so I just thought it best to post it here and you can decide if a new thread is needed. This warning was sent to me by my friend here at Adland Janice WORST VIRUS EVER --- CNN ANNOUNCED PLEASE SEND THIS TO EVERYONE ON YOUR CONTACT LIST!! 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 . 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 ctrl+alt+ del 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 notice 25 times than not at All Dawn Marie
