November 2
I am forwarding this message which I received from someone I trust. Please pass it along.
This morning, I received the enclosed virus warning from a trusted source. Thought I ought to pass it along.
I don't think this is a Halloween prank.
Forward this letter out to as many people as you can. This is a new, very malicious virus
and not many people know about it.
This information was announced yesterday morning from Microsoft; please share it with
everyone that might access the Internet.
Once again, pass this along to everyone in your address book so that this may be stopped
before it spreads far.

If you receive an e-mail titled "WIN A HOLIDAY" do not open it, it will
erase everything on your hard drive. Forward this letter out to as many
people as you can. This is a new, very malicious virus and not many
people know about it. This information was announced yesterday morning
from Microsoft, please share it with everyone that might access the
Internet. Once again, pass this along to EVERYONE in your address book so
that this may be stopped. Also, do not open or even look at any mail
that says "RETURNED OR UNABLE TO DELIVER" this virus will attach itself
to your computer components and render them useless. Immediately delete
any mail items that say this. AOL has said that this is a very dangerous
virus and that there is NO remedy for it at this time. Please practice
precautionary measures and forward this to all your on-line friends.
