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 is 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 ,

COPY THIS E-MAIL AND SEND! IT TO YOUR FRIENDS

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

And get your mates to ditch their crappy PCs and buy a Mac

This is a hoax, and has been circulating for over a year.

This is a hoax.

As a rule of thumb, I always Google this kind of tosh before I forward it.

So far I've not been sent a free create of champagne, I haven't got cancer from Red Bull and I haven't been sent any money when Microsoft tracked my email.

Sorry guys I didnt realise.

Hey it was worth a try and would have saved someones computer had it been real. sorry

How do I get the mods to delete the post?

Don't worry, it was kind of you to think of us.

edit - if you want them to delete it, click on the Alert button on the left and explain.

No worries. I'm constantly trying to educate my friends about this kind of nonsense and they still haven't learned.

The most irritating thing is that all these stupid hoaxes seem to be migrating from email to MySpace bulletins...
