Virus warning!

I don't know how accurate this is but I received this in my email from a lady i know that has aquired several viruses on her computer and now keeps a very close eye on that sort of thing.

Just thought I'd share.



Very Urgent!!!!!!!...

PASS THIS ON TO ANYONE YOU HAVE AN E-MAIL ADDRESS FOR.

If you receive an email titled: "It Takes Guts to Say
Jesus"
DO NOT OPEN IT. It will erase everything on your hard
drive.
This information was announced yesterday morning from
IBM; AOL states that this is a very dangerous virus,
much worse than
"Melissa," and that there is NO Remedy for it at this
time. Some very sick
individual has succeeded in using the reformat
function from Norton
Utilities
causing it to completely erase all documents on the
hard drive. It has been
designed to work with Netscape Navigator and Microsoft
Internet Explorer. It
destroys Macintosh and IBM compatible computers.

This is a new, very malicious virus and not many
people know about it. Pass
this warning along to EVERYONE in your address book
! and please share it with
all your online ! friends ASAP so that this threat maybe
stopped. Please
practice cautionary measures and tell anyone that may
have access to your
computer. Forward this warning to everyone that you
know that might access
the Internet.

No offense, but 99% of those e-mails are spam. I bet that phone number is to someone who ticked off the person who sent the original e-mail.

No offense meant here either...just I have learned from experience that if you get something like that go to mcafee or Norton's website and research it before you tell anyone about it. After reading your posts it took me about 2 minutes to find this out:
