actually the virus is the propogation of the very message you sent out....
to put it simply....there is NO way the virus described could work....
however, by sending the message "alerting" people to this virus, you are in
effect using bandwidth, taking up disk space, and peoples time to read it....
therein lies the true effect of this virus....
to fight this particular virus, don't forward the mail message
not a flame, just clearing the air....
