[sharechat] Dangerous virus


From: Brian Gale <brigale@i4free.co.nz>
Date: Thu, 17 Aug 2000 14:18:30 +1200



Just received the following ex AUS - thought it worth passing on if 
Chatters are not already aware.

Someone is sending out a very cute screensaver of the Budweiser frogs. If
you download it, you will lose everything! Your hard drive will crash and
someone from the internet will get your username and password!
DO NOT DOWNLOAD IT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES!
It just went into circulation yesterday. Please distribute this message.
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.
AOL has said that this is a very dangerous virus and that there is NO
remedy for it at this time.
