THERE IS A NEW EMAIL VIRUS ************ !!!
It is a variant of the Melissa virus. When activated, it sends email
automatically to a whole bunch of people in your address book.
THE TEXT OF THE MESSAGE IS:
> Hi ...!
>> I received your email and I shall send you a reply ASAP.
>> Till then, take a look at the attached zipped docs.
> bye
DONT OPEN THE ATTACHED FILE !!!
zipped_files.exe
It is not a legal ZIP file. But even if Winzip complains about it, the
damage is already done.
DONT OPEN IT!
DONT EXECUTE IT!
DELETE IT!
