Since we are off topic:

Ah, yes, brings me back to the good ol' days of the 'Irish
Virus' (http://tinyurl.com/bb3m7) 

And text from the official AV hoax:

"Greetings, You have just received the "IRISH VIRUS". As we don't have
any programming experience, this Virus works on the honour system.
Please delete all the files on your hard drive manually and forward this
Virus to everyone on your mailing list. Thank you for your cooperation."
