off topic - virus warning



In light of the recent virus episode we had here on the list, I just HAD to
pass this on. Hope you don't mind and maybe get a little chuckle too...

"This one really sounds like it could be a problem.

If you receive an email entitled "Bad-times," delete it immediately!  Do
not
open it!  Apparently this one is pretty nasty. It will not only erase
everything on your hard drive, but it will also delete anything on disks
within 20 feet of your computer.  It demagnetizes the stripes on ALL of
your credit cards.  It reprograms your ATM access code, screws up the
tracking
on your VCR and uses subspace field harmonics to scratch any CD's you
attempt
to play.  It will program your phone auto dial to call only your
mother-in-law's number.  This virus will mix antifreeze into your fish
tank.  It will drink all your beer.  (For Gods sake man are you listening?)
It
will leave dirty socks on the coffee table when you are expecting company.
It will replace your shampoo with Nair and your Nair with Rogaine, all the
while dating your current boy/girlfriend behind your back and billing their
hotel rendezvous to your Visa card.  It will cause you to run with scissors
and throw things in a way that is only fun until someone loses an eye.  It
will rewrite your backup files, changing all your active verbs to passive
tense and incorporating undetectable misspellings, which grossly change the
interpretations of key sentences.  If the "Bad-times" message is opened in
a Windows95/98 environment, it will leave the toilet seat up and leave your
hair dryer plugged in dangerously close to a full bathtub.  It will not
only remove the forbidden tags from your mattresses and pillows; it will
also
refill your skim milk with whole milk.
*********WARN AS MANY PEOPLE AS YOU CAN. ********* "
