[mik]

i just checked an email from a mate this is a warning he sent me i thought i would pass it on.
Dear All,



A serious alert. Please be guided...















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 with a Power Point

presentation " Life is Beautiful"

If you receive it DO NOT OPEN THE FILE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, and

delete it immediately.


If you open this file, a message will appear on your screen saying:

"It is too late now, your life is no longer beautiful."


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.


This is a new virus which started to circulate on Saturday afternoon.

AOL has already confirmed the severity, and the anti virus software's are not capable of destroyin 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

Sorry but please do not post this on the forums, its equal to spam and fueling the crap that goes with the notion of sending the email in the first place.

Just delete it and leave it at that.
