VIRUS COMING !
Hi All,
I checked with Norton Anti-Virus, and they are gearing
up for this virus!
I checked Snopes , and it is for real. Get this E-mail
message sent around to your contacts ASAP.
PLEASE FORWARD THIS WARNING AMONG FRIENDS, FAMILY AND
CONTACTS!
You should be alert during the next few days. Do not
open any message with an attachment
entitled POSTCARD FROM HALLMARK , regardless of
who sent it to you.
It is a virus which opens A POSTCARD IMAGE, which
'burns' the whole hard disc C of your computer.
This virus will be received from someone who has your e
-mail address in his/her contact list.
This is the reason you need to send this e -mail to all
your contacts. It is better to receive this message 25 times than to
receive the virus and open it.
If you receive an email entitled "POSTCARD,"
even though it was sent to you by a friend, do not open it! Shut down
your computer immediately. This is the worst virus announced by CNN.
It has been classified by Microsoft as the most
destructive virus ever.
This virus was discovered by McAfee yesterday, and there
is no repair yet for this kind of Virus.
This virus simply destroys the Zero Sector of the Hard
Disc, where the vital information is kept.
COPY THIS E-MAIL AND SEND IT TO YOUR FRIENDS.
REMEMBER: IF YOU SEND IT TO THEM, YOU WILL BENEFIT ALL
OF US

This has only been going around the internet for oh,
like 4 years now...
Almost all viruses today are about making money. Unless all the technology stores are incahoots with each other. No one profits from a virus like this, so why make it?
HOAX! Is there anything 'real' we can count on these days. We can't even realise the excitement of a real virus!

Remember: Hoaxes are a waste of both time and money. Do your friends and family a real favor and please don't forward them on to others.
