READ THIS AND PASS IT AROUND


Anyone-using Internet mail such as Yahoo, Hotmail, AOL and so on.

This information arrived this morning, Direct from both Microsoft and Norton

Please send it to everybody you know who has Access to the Internet..

You may receive an apparently harmless e-mail titled 'Mail Server Report'

If you open either file, a message will appear on your screen saying:
'It is too late now, your life is no longer beautiful...'

Subsequently you will LOSE EVERYTHING IN YOUR PC,
And the person who sent it to you will gain access to your Name, e-mail and password.

This is a new virus which started to circulate on Saturday afternoon.
AOLhas already confirmed the severity, and the anti virus software's are not capable of destroying it.

The virus has been created by a hacker who calls himself
'life owner'.

PLEASE SEND A COPY OF THIS E-MAIL TO ALL YOUR FRIENDS, And ask them to PASS IT ON IMMEDIATELY!

THIS HAS BEEN CONFIRMED BY SNOPES.

Didn't look as though it was "confirmed", but more denied by Snopes. Read the very bottom paragraph. Always appreciate a heads-up on this sort of stuff though :cheers:

Part real, part false but in computer terms it is old! The same old adage applies, don't open emails if you don't know where they are coming from.
 
You have been misled. The worm is called Warezov.W by Symantec/ Norton, is old news and is easily contained and removed by most antivirus software. The worm also does not operate the way that your email says it does.
 
I'm not a computer savvy person and hopefully this is an old, avoidable problem but I appreciate the heads-up. Thanks vlad.
