NEW TROJAN HORSE VIRUS
I received this message today from Maureen (class of '54) that she received from Roger (class of '51). They have sent the following message to their class.
Craig Mathews, class rep for the class of '67, sent me an email that says "The snopes site says this is outdated." But what does this mean? Is it gone forever or might I be just be at the end of the list to get it?

Subject: FW: : Please Circulate Virus Notice
PLEASE SEND TO YOUR FRIENDS
AND FAMILY ON YOUR CONTACT
LIST
In the coming days, you
should be aware…
Do not open any message
with an attachment called:
"Invitation
FACEBOOK"
Regardless of who sent it,
it is a virus that opens an Olympic torch
and burns the whole hard disc
C of your computer.
This virus will be
received from someone you have in your address book
That's why you should send
this message to all your contacts.
It is better to receive
this email 25 times than to receive the virus and open it.
If you receive email
called: "Invitation FACEBOOK", though sent by a friend,
do not open but delete it
immediately.
CNN said it is a new virus
discovered recently
and that has been
classified by Microsoft as the most destructive virus ever.
It is a Trojan Horse that
asks you to install an adobe flash plug-in.
Once you install it, it's
all over.
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 of their function is saved.
THE INFORMATION HAS BEEN
CHECKED WITH SNOPES
