Virus Alert
There is a virus going around today that has spread from Asia and Europe and is now affecting North America. It is called the "Love Letter" virus. If you receive an email with the word "love" in the title, don't open it! If you open the message, ALL your mp3's and jpg's will be instantly corrupted. If you open the attachment, every file on your computer will be deleted. The virus had caused $300 million worth of damage in North America alone by 9 a.m. This also isn't one of those bogus virus alerts, because it's also on the news websites! (click here for the CNN.com article) The virus was even found at the company my dad works at this morning, although he didn't get it personally.
Just a public service announcement from your friendly administrator |
