IMPORTANT VIRUS NEWS !!!

my cousin in America is a computer engineer and installs large company computers, he sent me this email and so I thought I would pass it on to everyone on here !!!


HI TRACEY PLEASE READ THIS ONE.......

Very Important
During the next several weeks be VERY cautious about opening or launching
any e-mails that refer to the World Trade Center or 9/11 in any way,
regardless of who sent it.

PLEASE FORWARD TO ALL YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY.

FOR THOSE WHO DON'T KNOW. "WTC" STANDS FOR THE WORLD TRADE CENTER.
REALLY DANGEROUS BECAUSE PEOPLE WILL OPEN IT RIGHT AWAY, THINKING IT'S A STORY RELATING TO 9/11!

BIGGGG TROUBLE !!!! DO NOT OPEN "WTC Survivor" It is a virus that will
erase your whole "C" drive............

It will come to you in the form of an E-Mail from a familiar person. I
repeat, a friend sent it to me, but called and warned me before I opened
it. He was not so lucky and now he can't even start his computer!
Forward this to everyone in your address book. I would rather receive this
25 times than not at all.
So, if you receive an email called "WTC Survivor", do not open it. Delete
it right away!
This virus removes all dynamic link libraries (.dll files) from your
computer.

Sorry to say it Tracey love...

Its a hoax... It has been put all over the web. But if you have a look on the Symantec.com site, it will tell you all about it...I had the same email sent to me last month from another "professional" source, and He didnt know either... All you have to do is go to www.symantec.com , then go to virus lists or search for it, and it will gell you everything you need to know abaout any virus or hoax...

Here is the actual page...http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/wtc.survivor.hoax.html

Better safe than sorry though everytime love.

Best wishes,

Rolfy

Quite agree with Bert....

(now there's a first)

I would sooner have half a dozen warnings which amount to nothing, than not be told about a real virus..

Dont feel stupid about it... better safe than sorry..

Loads a love,

Rolfy
