Hi Barbara,
 
Because I am no longer subscribed to the List I cannot post.  This came from a dear friend of mine and I hate to simply let it go in case it is a real possibility.
 
She says that it has been "checked out on Snopes" and is found to be the real thing.
 
If you think that it is worth putting on the List will you do so for me?  I surely appreciate it.  And, I hope it saves some very fine people trouble with their computers.
 
I'll be back on the List one of these days.  I just needed a rest from all of the email and right now my pain keeps me from getting on everyday to keep the mail from accumulating.
 
Love and Prayers,
Jude



This is very important. Please read it. Sara

Warning READ AS SOON AS POSSIBLE

Get this sent around to your contacts ASAP...we don't need  this spreading around.....

PLEASE FORWARD THIS WARNING AMONG FRIENDS, FAMILY AND CONTACTS:

You should be alert during the next days:

Do not open any message with an attached filed called "Invitation" regardless of who sent it, It is a virus that opens an  Olympic Torch which "burns" the whole hard disc C of your computer. This  virus will be received from someone who has your e-mail address in his/her contact list, that i s why you should send this e-mail to all your contacts. It is better to receive this message 25 times than  to receive the virus and open it.

If you receive a mail called "invitation", though sent by a friend,do not open it and shut down your computer  immediately.

This is the worst virus announced by CNN, it has been classified by Microsoft as the most destructive virus ever.

This virus was discovered by McAfee yesterday, and there is  no repair yet for this kind of virus.

This virus simply destroys the Zero Sector of the Hard Disc, where the vital information is kept.

SEND THIS E-MAIL TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW,

AND REMEMBER: IF YOU SEND IT TO THEM, YOU WILL BENEFIT ALL OF US .
