Subject: Pokemon Virus Warning
Hi all,
Well we went a few weeks without any major outbreaks.
There is a new virus called the "Pokemon" Virus.
This virus has just reached the United States and is similar
to the "Love Bug" virus.
The following was posted on Yahoo News...
The Japanese Pokemon cartoon character has mutated on the
Web into a nasty little computer-bugger, spreading himself via emails like
the devastating ``Love Bug'' did.
Virus experts said Thursday the cute yellow rabbit-like
creature, a darling of the Pokemon video-game family, had popped up in the
United States, wrecking PCs that it gets into by wiping out their system
files.
McAfee has not yet posted a "virus definition" for this yet.
Thanks,
Norman Henri
