Olympic Torch Virus

Hi everyone,

I got some messages today on Facebook regarding a new virus and I thought I should post it here. This is a warning regarding opening your email. Please read below:

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 file 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

SEND THIS E-MAIL TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW ,

COPY THIS E-MAIL AND SEND! IT TO YOUR FRIENDS

yeah, this is the worst of all, where did you see a virus that could burn your hard drive! lol just joking. yeah this sound really scary thanks for the warning.

Has there any story about the victims of this virus? O_O

Wow, its the most dangerous stuff ever, C is the most important partition, once its toast, so is your computer O_O

Hey Kinn,

Hmm I'm not sure. I would assume that there have been stories about this virus. They say that it's been reported on CNN and we do have CNN here so I'll watch the news for anything about it.

But yeah, definitely be careful in the meantime. Hopefully, there will be something to combat this virus cause man, it's scary for the hard drive to be destroyed and I sure don't want to have to get another one. O_O
