I've always wondered why people don't
realize that the "virus warning"
email message is really the virus.
The only damage, is caused by
warning everyone you know.

If reading a message could erase your
hard drive, I don't think email would
be so popular. Mailing
lists like this one would be virtually
non-existent, for fear of opening that
hard drive eating message.
