I Got This Mail To at Work So I Checked It Out With Servaral Virus Checkers ( Support) And It Is A Hoax.
There Are Some Sad People Out There Who Like To Put The Whats It Up People By Sending Out Hoax Warnings They Are As Bad As The Virus Writers The Rule Of Thumb Is If you don`t know who the e mail is from delete it and always update your checker once a week I Work In The PC Ind AND I Am Fed Up With Hoax Viruses

I dunno why they bother, obviously it will harm businesses but if ur at home do what I do, make a harddrive image and turn it into a set or Restore CDrs. Therefore if my pc gets buggered then simply run the Autorestore and wayhey normal PC again
