    2. --part1_1b8a7a31.2461a993_boundary Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hi folks, I got this in the mail today from guy who is pretty computer savvy - that's his job.

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!!! IT JUST WENT INTO circulation yesterday, as far as we know. Please distribute/inform 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. 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.
