Naturally, this is just another "Good Times" scare...but even if it were
true...how can it e-mail it self to everyone in your e-mail list, if it's
already destroyed your hard drive? That's irrational!
It would have to have a time delay built in, so it could e-mail out to those
other addresses before it destroyed your drive.
... Efficiency is a highly developed form of laziness.
