                        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,
