Hello friends,

I have no personal knowledge about this, but thought I would distribute anyway. Better safe than sorry.

This is a virus Hoax. It is not a real virus. It is typical of "chain letter" hoaxes. Please do not distribute this to more people. Please tell anyone that you've sent this to that it is a hoax and not to spread it. See:

for detailed information on this HOAX.
