The only damage this hoax is doing is wasting your time and tying up the
mail accounts of
all the people this message has been sent to. It is good to have a look at
www.sarc.com
under the hoax tab prior to forwarding any of this type of message. They are
invariably nonsense.
This hoax is clearly identified along with a number of other recent ones.
The only virus' that I have
encountered arrived very much unheralded.
