AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!
GEEEZZZ!!!  Can people PLEASE wake up@!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm not being mean to you specifically, but how gullible can people get?
How oculd this work?  If such a virus existed, the e-mail companies would
have new versions out so fast to stop it...
Anyway, there is no way known to man that such a thing could exist.  What the
hell e-mail program would load a virus when it came through.  Would thye all?
Only reason I actually read your message was because it was in french and
I was interested to see if maybe you'd buggered up the translation and you
really weren't gullible after all.
I was mistaken.
Please, no more messages from anyone ever with the title "VIRUS WARNING!!!!!"
etc ever again.  I think most people in this echo are not scared by viruses
in general...
Sheesh.
