Apparently there is a message going around tinternet that people will receive an e-mail from a contact that is an E-Card from Hallmark and don't open it as it contains a virus that will wreck your computer. It's a hoax.  |

Think that we all just have to careful, if you aren't sure of an e-mail, just delete it. If it's someone you know or it's that important, they will phone or use snail mail.

;DWatch out for these too, they are about as real as all the other hoax virus mails that come through your mail box
Viagra Virus - Expands your hard drive while putting too much pressure
on your zip drive. Turns your 3.5" floppy into a hard drive.
O.J. SIMPSON VIRUS v 1.0 - It claims that it did not, could not, and would not delete two of your files and vows to find the virus that did it.
Monica Lewinsky Virus v 1.0 - It sucks the juice out of your system, but only affects laptops. Then, it emails everyone about what it did. This later activates the Independent Counsel virus.
Mom Virus - Places a phone call to your mother every time you click on an adult website.
MIKE TYSON VIRUS - Quits after one byte.
George W. Bush virus v 1.0 - Doesn't do anything, but you can't get rid of it until January.
DOLLY PARTON VIRUS - It sounds pretty good, but you'd swear your monitor looks larger and have more knobs than it used to. DEFLATE.COM removes it.
Bob Dole (aka Viagra) Virus - Makes a new hard drive out of an old floppy.
and finally: Couch Potato Virus - Just sits there, eating chips all da
