Virus Alert !!

Posted by Indiana John from AC9A8B80.ipt.aol.com on July 26, 2001 at 13:02:51:

There is a virus going around...and you may already have it--yikes!

If you receive an email with an attachment .doc.lnk or something similar, you will want to permanently delete it.

If you already have it, the virus will pass itself to your address book recipients, and send them email including the same generic message...

"Hi! How are you?
I send you this file in order to have your advice.
See you later. Thanks"

...and will attach itself via a file taken from your hard drive.

Unfortunately, my computer has caught this...so you will probably want to delete any email that you have received from me within the last couple days.

I currently do not know the name or anti-virus for this...but I will post once I find out. Please reply to this is you have further information...
