You may have heard about this new virus which is supposed to hit on April Fool's Day.  I don't know if its a hoax or not but I'm copying this from an email I received.   No point in taking chances these days:








HUGE VIRUS COMING!!! PLEASE READ & FORWARD ON 

Hi All, I checked with Norton Anti-Virus, and they are gearing up for this virus!  I checked Snopes and it is for real!! 

Get this E-mail message sent around to your contacts ASAP. 

PLEASE FORWARD THIS WARNING AMONG FRIENDS, FAMILY AND CONTACTS! 

You should be alert during the next few days. Do not open any  message with an attachment entitled 'POSTCARD FROM HALLMARK,'  regardless of who sent it to you. It is a virus which opens A  POSTCARD IMAGE, which  'burns' the whole hard disc C of your  computer. 

This virus will be received from someone who has your e-mail  Address in his/her contact list. This is the reason why you need to send thi s e-mail to all your contacts It is better to receive this message 25 times than to receive the  Virus and open it. 

If you receive a mail called' POSTCARD,' even though sent to you  by a friend, do not open it! Shut down your computer immediately. 

This is t he worst virus announced by CNN. It has been classified  by Microsoft as the most destructive virus ever. This virus was  discovered by McAfee yesterday, and there is no repair yet for  this kind of virus. 

This virus simply destroys the Zero Sector of the Hard Disc, where the vital information is kept. 

COPY THIS E-MAIL, AND SEND IT TO YOUR FRIENDS.. REMEMBER: IF YOU  SEND IT TO THEM, YOU WILL BENEFIT ALL OF US
