[Figmo Bohica]

Anyone-using Internet mail such as Yahoo, Hotmail, AOL and so on. This information arrived this morning, Direct from both Microsoft and Norton. Please send it to everybody you know who has Access to the Internet. You may receive an apparently harmless e-mail titled "Here you have it" If you open the file, a message will appear on your screen saying: 'It is too late now, your life is no longer beautiful, f*** you and die....'

Subsequently you will LOSE EVERYTHING IN YOUR PC. And the person who sent it to you will gain access to your Name, e-mail and password, etc. This is a new virus which started to circulate on Saturday afternoon. AOL has already confirmed the severity, and the antivirus software's are not capable of destroying it.

The virus has been created by a hacker who calls himself 'life owner'.

PLEASE SEND A COPY OF THIS E-MAIL TO ALL YOUR FRIENDS, And ask them to PASS IT ON IMMEDIATELY!

THIS HAS BEEN CONFIRMED BY SNOPES.

Thanks for the heads up.

I checked your link and that virus has been around since Sept 2010. It must have been updated.

That's what they say. Updated the virus and changed the Subject line.

Do you remember way back when the "teddy bear virus" scam was going around. Told everyone to go to "here" then "here" then look for the "teddy bear" and delete it as it was a virus and was to activate on a certain date. At the time I was doing soft ware repair and updates. Seems that everyone jumped on the bandwagon and deleted that program, then could not open file names longer than 8 characters. Was a valid program, installed by microsoft that opened files names longer than 8 characters. I made a bunch of money re-installing that program on tons of computers. $45 for a five minute update. Not bad, hey.
