VIRUS WARNING
Got this from another board I frequent...
-------------
During the next several weeks be VERY cautious about opening or launching any e-mails that refer to the World Trade Center or 9/11 in any way, regardless
of who sent it. PLEASE FORWARD TO ALL YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY.
FOR THOSE THAT DON'T KNOW, "WTC" STANDS FOR THE
WORLD TRADE CENTER
REALLY DANGEROUS BECAUSE
PEOPLE WILL OPEN IT RIGHT AWAY.....
THINKING ITS A STORY RELATING TO 9/11
(.....PLEASE BE CAREFUL.......
BIGGGG TROUBLE !!!! DO NOT OPEN "WTC Survivor"
It is a virus that will erase your whole "C" drive. It will come to you in the form of an E-mail from a familiar person.
I repeat a friend sent it to me, but called and warned me before I opened it.
He was not so lucky and now he can't even start his computer!
Forward this to everyone in your address book.
I would rather receive this 25 times than not at all.
If you receive an email called "WTC Survivor" do not open it.
Delete it right away! This virus removes all dynamic link libraries (.dll files) from your computer.

Re: VIRUS WARNING (FASGLAS)
Hoax.

Just like 99% of emails you receive warning of these "horrible" virii. If it doesnt come from an accredited anti-virus source, it is likely a hoax to cause lots of unnecessary concern and emails and posts...it's someone's silly idea of a joke.
