MESSAGE FROM BREAKAWAY SUPPORT
We've just been informed that the joke regarding the frog being
splattered in a blender and the fish joke both contain viruses set
to execute on the 28th of May. If you still have them on your hard
drive delete them ASAP.
The programs were called blender.exe and fish.exe. They are
viruses now being sent to people via e-mail...called the A.I.D.S.
VIRUS. It will destroy your memory, sound card, speakers, and
hard drive, and it will infect your mouse or pointing devices, as
well as your keyboards, and you won't be able to type.
Remember it will not register on the screen. It self terminates
only after it eats 5MB of hard drive space & will delete all
programs.
It will come via E-mail called "OPEN: VERY COOL! :) ".
DELETE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! immediately!! It will basically render
your computer useless.
Also, if you receive an e-mail titled "Win AHoliday" DO NOT
open it. It will erase everything on your hard drive.
Someone is also sending out a very desirable screen-saver, a
Bug's Life -"BUGGLST.ZIP". If you download it, you will lose
everything!! Your hard drive will crash and someone from the
Internet will get your screen name and password.
DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS UNDER ANY
CIRCUMSTANCES!!
Forward this info 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 by Microsoft.
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 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.
