Did you check on the Microsoft or Norton websites for information on this virus before forwarding on this crap to every one you know?

never trust a "warning" sent to you from your friends, they are rubbish every time, it's like those txt messages that tell you to send this message on to 20 people and vodafone\telecom will give you $20, when i used to work at vodafone one of these would do the rounds every 2 or 3 weeks, then the customers would get pissed off and want their money back for sending 100 messages.....ah no

I can't believe people are thick enough to forward these on...if there were no idiots around the life of these e-mails wouldn't even span 5 minutes.

Christ, I remember getting this hoax email about five or six years ago!

My bloody sister and a friend send me these all the time. I copy and paste a line of the text into Google and within seconds it tells me all I need to know - which is that it is almost invariably a hoax.

Those of us who are a bit computer savvy get really annoyed receiving these, and for those who are computer-stupid, it scares them into doing something that can often upset their computer!

DON'T FORWARD THEM ON!!! And if you get one that promises you millions if you forward it on to all your 'friends' - that's bullshit too!
