Dear Friends,

info

Here is the warning. It came from his company, so it's probably real.

"if anyone receives mail entitled: PENPAL GREETIGS! - delete it without
reading it !!! This message appears to be a friendly letter asking you
if you are interested in a penpal, but by the time you read this letter,
it is too late. The trojan horse virus will have already infected the
boot sector of your hard drive , destroying all of the data present. It
is a self-replicating virus, and once the message is read, it will
AUTOMATICALLY forward itself to anyone who's E-mail adress is present in
YOUR mailbox! The virus will destroy your hard drive, and holds the
potential to destroy the hard drive of anyone whose mail is in our inbox,
and whose mail is in their inbox and so on. If this virus remains
unchecked, it has the potential to do damage to computer networks
worldwide!!!
Please delete the message entitled "PENPAL GREETINGS!" as soon as you see
it and pass this message along to all of your friends and relatives and
the other readers of the news groups and mailiing lists which you are on,
so that they are not hurt by this dangerous virus."
