There is a virus out now being sent to people via email...it is called
the A.I.D.S. VIRUS. It will destroy your memory, sound card and speakers,
hard drive and it will infect your mouse or pointing device, as well as
your keyboards making what you type not able to register on the screen.
It self terminates only after it eats 5MB of hard drive space & will
delete all programs. It will come via E-mail called "OPEN: VERY COOL! :)".
Delete it immediately!! It will basically render your computer useless.
PASS IT ON QUICKLY & TO AS MANY PEOPLE AS POSSIBLE!! THANKS!! :-)
