Good Morning!

I do not how many of you have seen this, but I thought it was important
enough (and looked legit enough) to pass it along.

Hope all is well with you!

PLEASE READ- WARNING !!!!!!
Mail*Link(r) SMTP PLEASE READ: WARNING !!!!!!!!!! INTERNET

Just a heads up...
----------------------------

VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION: PLEASE READ !

There is a computer virus that is being sent across the Internet. If
you receive an email message with the subject line "Good Times", DO NOT
read the message, DELETE it immediately. Please read the messages below.
Some miscreant is sending email under the title "Good Times" nationwide,
if you get anything like this, DON'T DOWNLOAD THE FILE ! It has a virus
that rewrites your hard drive, obliterating anything on it. Please be
careful and forward this mail to anyone you care about.

WARNING !!!!!!! INTERNET VIRUS

The FCC released a warning last Wednesday concerning a matter of major
importance to any regular user of the Internet. Apparently a new
computer virus has been engineered by a user of AMERICA ON LINE that is
unparalleled in its destructive capability. What makes this virus so
terrifying, said the FCC, is the fact that no program needs to be
exchanged for a new computer to be infected. It can be spread through
the existing email systems of the Internet. Once a Computer is infected,
one of several things can happen. If the computer contains a hard drive,
that will most likely be destroyed. If the program is not stopped, the
computer's processor will be placed in an nth-complexity infinite binary
loop -which can severely damage the processor if left running that way
too long. Luckily, there is one sure means of detecting what is now
known as the "Good Times" virus. It always travels to new computers the
same way in a text email message with the subject line reading "Good
Times". Avoiding infection is easy once the file has been received

simply by NOT READING IT! The act of loading the file into the mail
server's ASCII buffer causes the "Good Times" mainline program to
initialize and execute. The program is highly intelligent- it will send
copies of itself to everyone whose email address is contained in a
receive-mail file or a sent-mail file, if it can find one. It will then
proceed to trash the computer it is running on.

The bottom line is: - if you receive a file with the subject line "Good
Times", delete it immediately! Do not read it" Rest assured that
whoever's name was on the "From" line was surely struck by the virus.
Warn your friends and local system users of this newest threat to the
Internet! It could save them a lot of time and money.

Could you pass this along to your global mailing list as well?
