    3. If it is a hoax it sure made a lot of news media spots, and a warning at government offices.......I would say if you get a email such as this even from a relative, to email the relative and ask if they sent it before opening it.......in fact I email relatives a day or two a head and tell them what I am sending if I send a picture......better safe than sorry...I have the latest virus protection and it does not always eliminate them....sometimes it just quarantines them until they can be erased.
