reboot.
> When the ctrl+alt+del keys or the reset button are pressed, the virus
> destroys Sector Zero, thus permanently destroying the hard disk. Yesterday
> in just a few hours this virus caused panic in New York, according to news
> <http://www.cnn.com> ). This alert was received by an employee of
Microsoft
> itself.  So don't open any mails with subject "A Virtual Card for You".
