Virus Alert [9/11]

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 ITS 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 thi s 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.

did u get this in an email, warning you about the virus, or did u write this for our benefit?

jw if it was UR harddrive that almost got erased :blink:

i dont think it will erase the whole C: Drive as u cant delete the Windows Folder or Program files while running windows

anyway thanks for the Warning as i'm installing norton anti-virus 2003

Also beware for the New Worm Virus (MSBLAST)EXE :(

It sounds like you have that MsBlast worm thing, download the Microsoft patch now!

I, being your resident Hackee, advise people after installing Norton av and enabling liveupdate, to also manually download the "intelligent updater" definition file which is released everyday, as opposed to just using Liveupdate which updates your def's every Wednesday.
