    You should be alert during the next few days. Do not open any message with an attachme nt 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 why 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 a mail called' POSTCARD,' even though 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.

    Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.

    Also another one that has been out there of the last 3-4 days is one that references something you have from UPS. Don't know anything about it, but our IT folks at the office sent out a couple big warnings earlier in the week.

    I got that one. Looks official, says your shipment didn't arrive, but the sender has a hotmail address and the attached zip file is something I didn't open...
