Emails with pictures of Osama Bin-Laden hanged are being sent and the
moment that you open these emails your computer will crash and you will not be able to fix it! If you get an email along the lines of "Osama Bin Laden Captured" or "Osama Hanged" don't open the attachment!!

This e-mail is being distributed through countries around the globe, but mainly in the US and Israel.Be considerate & send this warning to whomever you know.

PLEASE FORWARD THIS WARNING AMONG FRIENDS, FAMILY AND CONTACTS:


You should be alert during the next days: Do not open any message with an attached filed called "Invitation" regardless of who sent it. It is a virus that opens an Olympic Torch 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, that is why you should 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 "invitation", though sent by a friend, do not open it and 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 by McAfee yesterday, and there is no repair yet for this kind of virus. This virus simply destroys the Zero Sector of the Hard Disc, where the vital information is kept.

Just a heads up:thumbsup:

Peace

Buddy

Simple rules keep me safe from shit.
Keep your anti-virus up to date.
Scan all incoming files and mail.
Trust nothing till tested.
Backup files and settings often.

Stick by them then you will be as safe as you can be.

If you built a better moustrap nature would come up with a smarter mouse.

PS If you have a firewall set it to block file and printer sharing.

I'd like to see 'em try to get one through me. 1,500 emails a day is too much to sort through. I made rules for accounts I'm responsible for getting mail from and the rest get deleted. In the imortal words of strongbad....DELETE.

Thanks for the heads up man, I actually do have an email labeled "OSAMA CAPTURED!" but I just deleted it. As I do most mail with unknown senders.
