PLEASE FORWARD THIS WARNING AMONG FRIEN DS, FAMILY AND CONTACTS!

You should be alert during the next few days. Do not open any
message
with an attachment entitled 'POSTCARD FROM HALLMARK,' regardless of
who
sent it to you. It is a virus which opens A POSTCARD IMAGE, which
'burns' the whole hard disc C of your computer. This virus will be
received from someone who has your e-mail address in his/her
contact
list. This is the reason why you need to send this e-mail to all
your
contacts It is better to receive this message 25 times than to
receive
the virus and open it.

If you receive a mail called' POSTCARD,' even though sent to you by
a
friend, do not open it! Shut down your computer immediately.

This is the worst virus announced by CNN. It has been classified by
Microsoft as the most destructive virus ever. This virus was
discovered
byMcAfee yesterday, and there is no repair yet for this kind of

This virus simply des troys the Zero Sector of the Hard Disc, where
the
vital information is kept.
