I received this from our network controller this
morning. I get
warnings
like this from time to time but never yet one so
strongly worded.
Please be warned and pass this message on.

Hi all,
You may receive via Email an apparently harmless
Budweiser
screensaver
entitled BUDDYLST.SIP if you do DO NOT OPEN IT UNDER
ANY
CIRCUMSTANCES. Once
opened you will lose EVERYTHING on your PC. Your
hard disk will be
completely destroyed and the person who sent you the
message will
have
access to your name and password via the Internet.
As far as we
know this virus was circulated yesterday morning.
It's a new virus
and
extremely dangerous. Please copy this information
and Email it to
everyone
in your address book. We need to do all we can to
block this virus.
AOL,
Demon and now BT Internet has confirmed how
dangerous it is and
there is no
Anti-Virus program as yet which is capable of
destroying it. Please
take all
necessary precautions and pass this information on
to your friends,
acquaintances and work colleagues"
Thank your very much,
Edwin de Groote
Manager IT Services
